Six months after the incident she's back at work, and the moment she steps into the precinct, she can see a change in the department. Everyone's smiling at her, or shaking her hand, it was like they were glad she was there. For once.
The biggest surprise, had been Major Ryan hiring her as an official employee of the City of Arion with a desk and everything. No more freelancing, it felt good. Like everything was changing for the better. Like the town might start accepting her after all these years.
However, before Lily could bask in the good news, she and Moss are thrust into a murder case, and none of it makes sense.
Lily can sense fae magic on the suspect, but the crime scene is a different story.
Was fae magic being imitated or was the murderer that smart? And why only kill half of a couple?
As Lily and Richard's relationship begins to blossom, they must find who is actually responsible for the murders, before they become the killer's next target.
