The Lost Amulet

An art historian. A relic the Church has hidden for centuries. Seven weeks until the sky breaks open.

Dr. Marcus Voss has spent seven years perfecting the professor’s mask, art history at a seaside university, his inheritance locked in a drawer with his mother’s Creole spellbooks. Then a relic hunted across five centuries finds its way into his keeping, and every faction that has ever wanted it turns toward the California coast.

As the Grand Conjunction nears and the boundaries between worlds thin, Marcus must decide what he is willing to inherit, and what it will cost to refuse.

“The only thing we had in common was the craft that I didn’t practice. Besides, their magic was academic, aesthetic, clean. Mine was blood and water, loss and survival.”
