Ruby Achera just wanted a nice, quiet drink at her family's casino in Magic City. The Mist Casino sits just above a kemana with an interior that would make a ghost feel right at home. Of course it does.
After all, Magic City has to compete with nearby Vegas. A different kind of magic.
Ruby is just back from University for the summer, catching up with an old friend when everything changes with a BANG!
A series of small blasts are exploding all around her. Chips are flying through the air. Someone wanted to announce their arrival in town. But who?
Ruby is about to get drawn into a battle for control of Magic City. They just made the fight personal. Is the Ebon Dragon Casino next?
Will Ruby's secrets get in her way?
What waits at the end could change her life forever, if she survives the journey.

Martha Carr loves a good tale that makes her wonder about things and she loves a story that leaves her feeling inspired or like she's capable of doing more than she realized. That's her goal with everything she's ever written. Some of the stories Martha tells involve twisting, turning thrillers and others have a lot of magic.
