Hunted by the Ferryman of the Dead. Tracking pieces of a cursed ancient weapon. Nobody warned her this was part of the job description.
A month ago, Nora's biggest problem was her narcissistic ex-husband and a pile of mundane insurance claims. Now she's marching into the Greek Underworld in yoga pants, accompanied by a kleptomaniac fairy hiding in her ponytail, a dragon who considers the rose bushes her personal project, and a hellhound with a drool problem.
To restore the power of a traumatised Medusa — currently residing as a living severed head in Nora's House — the Magical Midlife Detectives must track down three scattered fragments of the ancient sword that beheaded her. From the antique markets of London to a deadly ghoul's lair in Damascus and a highly chaotic heist in Toledo, they're racing against time. Because the Dark Lord wants the fragments too, and his plans for them are considerably worse than theirs.
Dodging shadow wraiths and outsmarting ancient deities would be manageable, if it weren't for Nora's accidentally catastrophic love life. A fiercely protective werewolf, a dangerously charming centaur, and a smouldering vampire — navigating inter-species romance while trying to save the magical world is its own particular kind of chaos.
Magic Sword: where the sarcasm is sharp, the mythology is lethal, and the midlife crisis comes with a body count.
Genre: Fantasy
