De: Dan Willis

Narrado por: Alex Knox

Manhattan real estate has always been to die for, but now someone is willing to kill for it and Alex Lockerby is right in their way.

When Alex steps in to stop a gang of thugs trying to bully a client into selling his house, he suddenly finds himself neck deep in a world of shady deals and organized crime. Add to that the death of a highly placed runewright that looks like murder for hire, and Alex quickly finds himself with a price on his head and a target on his back.

As Alex tries to stay one step ahead of the mob, Sorceress Sorsha Kincaid has her own problems. Cursed by the Legion, her magic is being slowly bled away, leaving her weaker and weaker. Despite Alex’s best efforts, they’ve barely managed to slow the curse down. Now Sorsha has to face the two most important questions of her life; Where is her siphoned power going, and what will happen to her when it’s gone?

With time running out, Alex must navigate a twisted vortex of corporate sabotage, mob murder, and dark magic that threatens to cost him everything he holds dear.

I want the next audio book already it's Driving me absolutely crazy. I love the story line and I loved how of the magic and everything makes it so fun and interesting And I love the mysteries

Another Great Book in this Series

I really been enjoying this Series and how the story progresses. The characters are fun and interesting and they get into so much mischief. I highly recommend this Series and I have listened to them on Audible books. Narrator does a Great job with the various characters voices and the entire storyline.

another exciting book in this series

the series is very entertaining and has plenty of plot twists and turns of course you do have to remember that you have to read from the beginning in order for all the reoccurring characters to best come to life. it's a mix of historical fiction and fantasy with key figures of the 30s and 40s as part of the plot and some historical figures in the background. would be interesting to see where the author goes from here the narration is good and has been done by the same person for most of the books in the series he does a great job bringing voice and reality to the main character. I look forward to see what happens next

Another great addition

Can't get enough of this world, a proper noir detective novel with magic, something I've been craving since finishing Larry Corria's Hard magic series.

Another good story

A good story. Well performed and entertaining. Ordinarily, I would complain about taking 8 books to set up a main story line, but in this case, it was done well, so no complaints, other than I want book 9 NOW! 🙂

A well written return to a past era.

Written in the style of The Thin Man's Nick and Nora Charles, Only with magic.

I'm done.

Too reactive. It's what I hate most in a protagonist- one that only reacts to their enemies. Let the bad things happen for 'drama' before doing anything.

Let them shoot you. Let them escape. Let them strike first.

Oh, and yeah, worry about your job while your girlfriend is dying. I can totally empathise with that.
