USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Blackstream reveals the next pulse-pounding installment in the Blood Trails series. Political intrigue is for wizards. Shade has never agreed with her old mentor’s advice more than she does now. But if unraveling a political conspiracy is her only chance to escape the past month of magical boot camp and goblin-sparring, interspersed with seductive attempts by her sidhe master to make their relationship permanent, then so be it. A government spook saw something he shouldn’t have—a glimpse of the Otherworld. Now his life is in danger, and it’s up to Shade to save him. Unfortunately, there are a lot of monsters behind the scenes pulling political strings. Demons, sidhe, sorceresses, even the vampiric crime lord of Cleveland himself. Any one of them could have frightened the political fixer into madness. And they’ll do much worse to Shade if she threatens to uncover their secrets… The Blood Trails series is a fusion of contemporary fantasy and cozy mystery that combines a classic private investigator/whodunnit with the sarcasm, magic, and pulse-pounding battles that have made the urban fantasy genre so famous. Join a witch detective and her quirky pixie familiar as they take on vampires, werewolves, wizards, sorceresses, and a whole lot more. After all, nothing relieves stress like a little magic, mayhem…and murder. All of my books are written in the same universe (yes, the Blood Trails series is contemporary, not historical like the Blood Prince/Blood Realm series—so you’ll have to read Deadline to find out how I managed that…). Be ready for crossovers and cameos!

Shade’s latest case hits close to home when a witch shows up on her doorstep claiming her magic has been stolen. A fly-by-night coven is using an online message board to recruit inexperienced witches—only to vanish weeks later, leaving a trail of magicless women in their wake. And it only gets weirder from there. An offer of help from a familiar, but unwelcome source. Growing discord from Scath threatening to play right into their enemies’ hands. And the mutilated body of a solitary witch. Now it’s personal. There’s something theatrical about these magic thefts, something beyond a simple lust for power. Someone is pulling the strings—and there’s no shortage of puppeteers among Shade’s suspects. But a witch can only be pushed so far. And Shade has had enough.

New York Life Isn't Easy for a Dead GirlIt's hard enough working homicide when your diet consists of human blood, but detective Mildred Heavewater tries not to get hungry at work. Her crime scenes are even messier than usual, considering they all involve inter-species crime. Werewolves, wendigos, and gargoyles all keep life interesting. Add on a ghostly Jewish mother and a lovesick sasquatch co-worker, and Mildred thought she had a full set of problems. That was before the most impossible murder in New York history showed up.Golems are clay people, super-strong and pretty nice. Heck, they're programmed by their creators not to harm humans. That's why the whole city is shocked when a golem is accused of murder. A teenage rabbi turns up with a snapped neck encased in clay, and all signs point to the simpleminded golem school janitor. With the press stampeding in, Mildred has mere days to prove that someone much more dangerous has framed the poor clay schlub from behind the scenes.Time is ticking as inter-species tensions flare throughout New York. If Mildred can't clear the good name of golems everyone, blood and clay will run in the streets. She's got a strict time limit to deal with and still has to grapple with immortal Babylonian warriors, vampire junkies, the selfie-obsessed Jersey Devil, and the terror of Kosher sushi. Something just may kill this dead girl yet.
