Satrine Rainey: Former street rat. Ex-spy. Wife and mother who needs to make twenty crowns a week to support her daughters and infirm husband.  To earn that, she forges credentials and fakes her way into a posting as a constabulary Inspector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minox Welling: Brilliant Inspector. Uncircled Mage. Outcast of the stationhouse.  Partnered with Satrine because no one else will work with \u201cthe jinx\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their first case together\u2014the ritualized murder of a Circled mage\u2014brings Satrine back to the streets she grew up on, and forces Minox to confront the politics of mage circles he\u2019s avoided.  As more mages are found dead, Satrine must solve the crime before her secrets catch up with her, and before her partner ends up a target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c<\/strong>A Murder of Mages<\/strong><\/em> was another hit for me, a fantastic read from a new talent whose star continues to be on the rise.\u201d\u2013 <\/strong>Bibliosanctum<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
