For twenty years, she was a prisoner of an organized crime syndicate, forced to use her magic to make Moses the most powerful and feared man on the East Coast. To escape his cruelty, she faked her own death and started a new life as Alice Worth. As a private investigator specializing in cases involving the supernatural, Alice walks a precarious line between atoning for the sins of her grandfather's cabal and keeping her true identity hidden.

Hired to investigate the disappearance of a mysterious object of power, Alice enlists the help of Malcolm, a ghost running from a past as nightmarish as her own. It soon becomes clear the missing object was taken by someone with a dangerous secret and an unknown agenda. When her client is kidnapped, Alice must find her and the object of power before a vengeful killer destroys the city and slaughters thousands—starting with Alice.

      Debut author Edmonds gives readers an energetic romp in her predictable but fun urban fantasy. A magically gifted woman on the run from her grandfather’s organized crime ring reinvents herself as Alice Worth, a private investigator who deals with supernatural cases. When she takes on a client who’s defending a magical bequest from magic-hating relatives, Alice must do everything in her power to save her before a secret weapon is unleashed that could destroy everything. Edmonds’s prose is energetic, but she does nothing new with her genre. Alice is both spunky and self-deprecating, with incredibly advanced magical powers. Her romance with Sean the werewolf is hackneyed, from the cute nicknames to the drawn-out sex scenes. There is promise in Edmonds’s melding of the supernatural and the everyday, but the novel does not escape predictability.
