Danica Grey and her fae dragon partner Jilly find themselves in the middle of a secret war between magicals and… magicians? Spellbound Security’s Cleveland office has made a name for themselves protecting celebrities of every kind. Bet they never saw this one coming. Stage Illusionist Lukas Reign is in need of a watchdog. Good looks, suave style, and a hint of mystery make him magic’s latest bad boy. And now someone wants to kill him for it. This case will require all of Danica and her team’s skills in investigation, protection, infomancy, and magic, plus a hefty dose of luck. Each night he’s on stage, Lukas performs death defying illusions, and it’s up to Danica and her team to make sure they stay illusions. Unknown to them, Moriarty’s hidden fingers are working the puppet strings again. He’s drawn Danica into his game once more, only she doesn’t realize she’s playing. She’ll need more magic, more power, and more luck than ever before if she’s to succeed – or even survive. But the job is the job. And as long as they’re working for Lukas, they’ll stand between him and any danger – including Moriarty and his lethal assistant Solene. What will it cost them? Things are heating up despite Cleveland’s winter cold snap. Can Danica and her team handle the flames that threaten to engulf them? There’s only one way to find out. For action, magic, snarky banter, martial arts, mystical creatures, and a dash of mystery, join Danica and Jilly for the next adventure of Spellbound Security!

I’m TR Cameron, science fiction author. I’ve been an avid consumer of the genre since I was six, I think, when I broke the seal on my Dad’s copies of the Asimov Foundation books. It’s been all downhill since then. I have a day job that I love most days, and writing is pretty much my only consistent hobby. When I find time that’s not already filled with my wife, my daughter, my writing, my work, or dodging the affections of our clowder of cats, you can find me playing video games (currently Dishonored 2 – I’m a little behind the times on this one), watching things (Marvel movies, American Gods, Agents of Shield, Justified, The Expanse, Gotham), playing board games, or, naturally, reading. My favorite authors in Sci-Fi are David Weber, Jean Johnson, John Scalzi, CJ Cherryh, and the giants: Asimov, Pohl, Bear, Heinlein, etc. I read a lot in other genres too, and am a big fan of Matthew Woodring Stover, Michael Anderle, Jim Butcher, and I could go on and on and on. If I had to choose one favorite, though, it would be Stephen R. Donaldson, whose Thomas Covenant series was transformative for me. Probably my pie-in-the-sky dream for my writing career is that someone would make a movie or television show of my books and I could be a part of the production. Sure, unlikely, but a clowder-dodger can dream, right? My more practical dream is that I can keep writing and both entertaining and connecting with my readers for years and years to come.
