Welcome to The Penumbra Papers, the award-winning Urban Fantasy series from Silver James. Fans of her Moonstruck series will love the Penumbra Papers. These "Cases from the Shadow's Edge" explore the forces of light and dark as they dance through shadows humans barely glimpsed prior to the Big Rip. Since the the Veil tore, all manner of preternatural magicks intermingle with humans in ways mysterious, magical and, in some cases, criminal. Much to humanity's surprise, there really are monsters under the bed and the things that go bump in the night are bigger and scarier than anyone ever imagined.
SEASON OF THE WITCH
Sade Marquis. Her best friend turns furry. Her godfather's a master vampire. Her mother was once a mistress of the King of the Faerie Court.
After the Veil rips, FBI Special Agent Sade Marquis is picked to lead the newly-formed MAGIC unit. When magic's in the air, Sade is the agent FBI Director George Bailey wants in the trenches. She's savvy, snarky, and sexy but she may have met her match when she's sent to Chicago to investigate the murder of a congressional aide.
Is the vampire, Kristian St. John, guilty as sin? Once a Templar knight, Sinjen now teaches history at the University of Chicago. As the prime suspect, he must rely on Sade to clear his name and track the real culprit.
If they don't unravel a thousand-year-old mystery, the world-human and magick-will suffer the consequences unleashed by evil incarnate. Too bad they just might die in the attempt...
