New Release Another day. Another job. Another magical artifact that could destroy the world. It should have been a simple job. Cross the Veil. Grab the item. Get paid. This time, the artifact wasn’t where it should be. When I’m sent after it, I find I’m not the only searching. Not only are the vampires after it, but there’s an incred- ibly powerful dark mage who wants it. A wand. The more I understand about the wand, the more I think no one should have its power. The only problem is now I’ve not got the Unseelie Queen after me—and it. There’s only one reason some- one like her would want the wand and that’s to rule. Either I’ve got to hide it from her, or I’ve got to control its power before it’s too late.
