Devilbone

Devilbone: Book 1 of the Sorcerous Crimes Division The Sorcerous Crimes Division is the sole bulwark between the rule of law and those who would command otherworldly powers to subvert it. These mage constables are responsible for investigating and policing magical crime in the Free City of Kaharas, a major melting pot where myriad races come to trade, work, and live. In Devilbone a company of soldiers is betrayed and sacrificed in an ancient ritual that sets off a crisis for the Sorcerous Crimes Division. Commander Alcott Vulfort must track the missing soldiers and unravel the mystery before the city's enemies can use the ritual's power for their own ends. Meanwhile, Boyle Tanner joins the Heavyhand Raiders and finds that vicious fights with smugglers and criminal magicians are the least of his worries when powerful, nightmarish creatures of legend begin to attack. The young constable must learn to fend for himself after both his strength and magical prowess are outmatched. In a marriage of traditional epic fantasy and police procedural storytelling, Devilbone's heroes show that courage and cunning can challenge even the darkest powers in the world. But will it be enough to overcome it?
