In Obscura

Twenty-something Jordan Cole doesn't seem like a viable recruit for a magical spy agency. She takes guilt money from her estranged father, works an undemanding data entry job and glides along the surface of her life.

But magician Magnus Wynter knows that there's more to this world than what our five senses can grok.

Jordan has magic, and Wynter needs her for an important job. Jordan's terrified but also exhilarated when her world begins to open up. If only her handler, Max Carlisle, would stop being so hard on her. But then Max has his own issues: He doesn't want what happened to his former partner to happen to Jordan. And the cult leader Jordan’s recently met activates Max's spider sense.

When the job leads Jordan to an isolated mansion on Catalina Island, Max discovers that Wynter has been keeping secrets from him - big secrets that threaten the existence of the world. Deciding to betray his powerful boss, Max will uncover the truth about Wynter, Jordan, Catalina and an ancient, esoteric power. Ultimately, he will learn that only Jordan can make the decision that will stop the bad guy. But that means Jordan has to become who she was truly meant to be. Can she do that in time?
