Publisher's summary

Before he was an Elfin Lord - before he even joined that secret group of Mages - Jamie Riley was a Mage recruited by the FBI and the Office of Supernatural Policing and Investigation. A new-minted Inspector sent into one of the most complicated supernatural regions in the country: Los Angeles.

The rest of OSPI’s LA team has grown comfortable with allowing politics and pragmatism to decide which cases they pursue, which criminals they charge - but when Jamie’s investigation suggests that a pillar of the supernatural community has killed in cold blood, he will let nothing get in the way of getting the murderer.

Not even his career.

Very Good!!!

I enjoyed this audiobook. It is a very interesting novella. The characters and their roles are well defined and the plot is pretty straightforward. There is quite a bit of punch in a relatively short read. I am looking forward to listening to more from this series.

Dragnet meets Magic!

Well narrated story. The plot had so many twists and turns that it will keep you guessing until the end.

Great novella

Great find. Reminds me of Orlando Sanchez books. Action, magic, mages, and partners ready to fight the bad guys.

What happened next?

great intro, but I would like to see the story about what happened to Riley between this story and when he (spoiler alert!) re-appears in the series.

Good opener

A good opener that is intriguing enough to want more. The author lets us get to know the leads powers, but hopefully we will get more about his personality in the novels.

A New Super Hero

I'm normally a military sci-fi guy, but this super natural special agent stuff was pretty cool. And you can't go wrong with Ray Porter...pure gold! More please!

Great with good back story.

Really enjoyed the breakout story. However Jamie's voice and narrator's voice swapped places at some point.
