“I love this book. Blake Northcott has seamlessly shifted genres and proven she’s as masterful in magic and fantasy as she was in science-fiction. Don’t pick this up unless you’re prepared to not put it down.”
- Mark Millar (Marvel's 'Civil War', 'Kingsman', 'Kick-Ass')

"Once it takes hold, it refuses to let go. Successfully fusing a spy thriller and supernatural adventure is not easy, but Blake Northcott delivers in full, face-melting force, all while building an immersive world that you will not want to leave."
- Cullen Bunn (NYT bestselling author, 'The 6th Gun', 'X-Men', 'Deadpool')

"A razor sharp page-turner that seamlessly blends two worlds--a late 90s teen horror film, and a cat-and-mouse spy thriller where magic is a weapon. It's electric, and I've never read anything like it."
- Rees Jones (co-author of 'Royals' with James Patterson)
