Introducing the first book in The Magic City trilogy—HOUSE OF ROSE
Rookie patrol officer Rose Brighton chases a suspect down an alley when she finds herself in the middle of every cop’s nightmare—staring down at a dead body with two bullet holes from her gun . . . in his back.
He’s dead and she’s alive, and now she has to explain it, which is going to be a problem because what happened was so strange, she doesn’t understand it herself. And if she doesn’t figure it out fast there will be more bodies, including her own.
