Magic to the Bone
Everything has a cost. And every act of magic exacts a price from its user-maybe a two-day migraine, or losing the memory of your first kiss. But some people want to use magic without paying, and they Offload the cost onto innocents. When that happens, it falls to a Hound to identify the spell's caster-and Allison Beckstrom is the best there is.



Daughter of a prominent Portland businessman, Allie would rather moonlight as a Hound than accept the family fortune-and the strings that come with it. But when she discovers a little boy dying from a magic Offload that has her father's signature all over it, Allie is thrown into the high-stakes world of corporate espionage and black magic.



Now Allie's out for the truth-and she must call upon forces that will challenge everything she knows, change her in ways she could never imagine, and make her capable of things that powerful people will do anything to control.

Editorial Reviews

Like everything, magic has a cost. In the case of black magic, it can exact a deadly bargain, but spell casters have learned to offload the high toll on some unknowing innocent. Allison Beckstrom would prefer not to know these things, would prefer to live a quiet moonlight life as a Hound, but she can't ignore the victims of her father's dark sorcery. The convincing debut of an urban fantasy series.

author of the Shifters series Rachel Vincent

Monk’s writing is addictive and the only cure is more, more, more.”

author of the Mercy Thompson urban fantasy series Patricia Briggs

Loved it. Fiendishly original.”
