A Magic Bullet Novel

Covert agent Alyse Winters is a powerful djinni until she finds herself on the wrong end of a burn notice. Cuffed and cut off from her magic, Alyse is dumped in Philadelphia where her past is only too eager to catch up with her. Add a few supernatural murders to the mix with Alyse as the prime suspect and she's ready to do anything to get her powers back, if she can survive being human long enough to clear her name.

Alyse Winters survived being burned by her own agency—but survival comes at a cost. Stripped of her djinn powers, Alyse is scraping by as a bounty hunter in Philadelphia while quietly digging into the conspiracy that destroyed her life. When her former Shadow Elite handler turns up dead and an anonymous warning drags her back into the shadows, Alyse realizes her takedown wasn’t an isolated betrayal—it was the opening move.

Alyse Winters thought losing her magic was the worst thing that could happen to her. She was wrong. When a brutal demon hunt erupts in Philadelphia, Alyse is dragged back into a world that still wants her dead—or worse, owned. Powerless and bound by copper cuffs, she should stay hidden. Instead, she finds herself protecting a traumatized Marid refugee whose escape has put a dangerous spotlight on Alyse’s location.
