If Lara Croft, Tomb Raider, invaded Stephanie Plumb’s Jersey and
fell into a raucous, twisted Middle Earth, they might find Taryn St. Giles
already waiting for them in this high action fantasy caper. Jessa Slade, award-winning author of QUEEN OF
STARLIGHT, Sheerspace Book 1
Archeologist Taryn St.
Giles has spent her life mining the ruins of the elves who vanished from the
Four Kingdoms a thousand years ago. But when her patrons begin disappearing
too—and then turning up dead—she finds herself unemployed, restless, and
desperate. So she goes looking for other missing things: as a bounty
hunter.
Tracking her first
fugitive—the distractingly handsome and strangely charming Alric—she unearths a
dangerous underworld of warring crime lords, demonic squirrels, and a long-lost
elven artifact capable of unleashing a hell on earth.
Chased, robbed, kidnapped,
and distressingly low on rent money, Taryn just wants one quiet beer and to
catch her fugitive. But there’s more to Alric than his wicked grin—is he a
wanted man or the city’s only hope? With menacing mages in pursuit and her
three alcoholic faery sidekicks always in her hair, Taryn’s curiosity might finally
solve the mystery of the elves… or be the death of her and destroy her world.
