Magic gave him power to protect those he loved. It also made him a target.
Adelfried has spent his life studying the Root, the most powerful source of magic ever discovered. He had hoped it would bring peace.
Instead, it made him a target.
With an army at his doorstep, betrayal throws him into the suburbs of America.
Now he’s caught between a ruthless police force and a deadly cult searching for the power of the Root.
His only refuge? The Harper family’s home, the one place he can remain hidden. He’ll explain all of this to the Harpers once he learns English. Until then, paying in silver will have to suffice.
As danger closes in, Adelfried must choose between protecting the family he’s found… or finding his way back to the one taken from him.
What to expect:
- A reverse portal, urban fantasy in a modern setting
- Fast paced action grounded with slice of life moments
- Magic as a science fiction based system
- Multiple POVs and interwoven character arcs
- Found family, humor, and an angry shrimp
Think Men in Black, The Rook, and Dresden files tossed into a blender.
