Not Magic, Science‪!‬

Magic and legendary creatures are seeping back into the world, bringing with them mayhem, murder, and maleficium.

Drs. Stephanie Blackraven and Bruce Richardson continue their studies of the energy phenomena laymen call Magic. A mysterious deity, The Lady, warns Steph and her werewolf guardians of an impending danger through dreams. But they don't understand.

Stephanie moves back to the family ranch, which she inherited from her not-so-dead great uncle, to escape frivolous lawsuits, government harassment, and religious zealots, all trying to interfere with her research. Stephanie is framed for a murder, exposing her and her werebear boyfriend to wizard assassins.

Stephanie believes her research is the key to the Lady's spiritual messages as well as stopping the assassins—and accidentally summoned demons.
