But he’s not the magic type. No, Quick’s a wolf shifter. And the island can’t be inherited by anyone who doesn’t do magic. And by damn, Quick has no magic skills.

He’s not meant to be a detective. Suddenly, he finds himself as an unofficial partner to a hot New Orleans detective. He’d quit, except that this mission could clear his friend Quick Alvarez.

It’s up to the Skull Point Alliance of witches and shifters to come to the rescue and discover what is stealing the island’s magic and at the same time destroying the wonderful habitat that has been enjoyed for hundreds of years!
