Iām Jinx, a run-of-the-mill private investigator...except Iām also a walking, talking lie detector. Oh, and I belong to magical realm known as the Other.
Murder isnāt usually my gig, but when Iām hired to investigate the death of a dryad called Reggie, I agree to help out because I know his grieving widow. It should be an easy case to crack, a mugging gone wrong, but the murder scene photos show it was anything but. Reggieās death has all the hallmarks of my parentsā murders so Iāll stop at nothing to finding his killers. Itās so important Iād even be willing to tag in Stone to help - if I could find him...
Reggie was into some bad stuff involving a drug called Boost. Take it, and you play Russian roulette because either you get high or you die. As the drug claims another victim, I find myself with a new sidekick who is determined to fight its evil influence and he just happens to be the king of the dragon community.
Now I have two deaths to solve and one suave dragon king along for the ride.
I need to find Reggieās murderer.
I need to discover who killed my parents.
And I need to keep my distance from the charismatic dragon Emory, who refuses to take no for an answer...
