Provided a choice, would you give up magical power or become the most disparaged of those who work with the law… A private detective! Fed up with playing the normal game, recent university graduate, ex-cum laude, ex-soccer star, ex-popular, and mostly broke Kera MacDonagh changed her life when she read How to be a Badass Witch and shockingly, the spells worked. Kera MacDonagh has dealt with learning magic, overcoming power-hungry covens from abroad, and engagements with the police to help those around her. Now, Kera puts her best adult foot forward and decides to branch out in a new direction. One her mother is unlikely to happy about. But will the powers that be allow her a chance to make a difference? With everything happening, Kera is balancing her relationship as well. Will becoming a detective fulfill her need to support those without hope, keep her boyfriend, and satisfy her mom? Unlikely, but she’s going to try!

Where do you go to fix a problem only you know about? Lia and Stephanie have stumbled upon a new case for the detective agency to unravel. It’s not stumping the police. It’s not even a cold case. That’s because no one outside the magical world even knows it’s happening. A grimoire that possesses the reader with the spirit of a dead wizard isn’t the sort of thing that makes the news, especially when the reader is a notorious recluse. Unfortunately, that notorious recluse is also a software magnate with security clearance. Now there’s a teensy possibility of World War III. Oh, and LA is ground zero for the final showdown between the Council of Thaumaturges and the Orthodoxy, so that’s throwing a monkey wrench into everything as well.
