Synopsis
In the bustling streets of New York, a killer is on the loose, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. But this isn't just any ordinary murderer - they're using an explosive rune, a powerful magic that should only exist in the pages of Alex Lockerby's own lore book. As the city descends into chaos and fear, Alex finds himself in a race against time to catch the culprit before they strike again. With his own abilities temporarily gone, he must rely on his wit and determination to solve the case. To make matters worse, the killer could be someone close to him, someone he never suspected. Can Alex piece together the clues of this deadly game before it's too late? And can he protect himself and those he cares about from the wrath of a vengeful killer? Don't miss out on the explosive twists and turns in this latest installment of the Arcane Casebook series. If you enjoyed the thrilling mystery and supernatural elements in "The Dresden Files" by Jim Butcher, you won't want to miss Equal & Opposite, the latest fantasy detective noir novel from Dan Willis.
