Thanks – we got it. We'll review and follow up if needed.
Ellis has been sold short by her family all her life, living in the shadows. That didn't stop our favorite Drow from finding her own path, even when it led straight into danger on the dark streets of the city of angels
It started out so simple, watching over the night dwellers in the big city, including her misguided brother. But the mystery deepened around her family's tangled web in the drug business, pulling in Ellis.
Then she found at least some of the answers about her missing mother. Were the two things tangled together? Seems like no one wanted to deal straight with Ellis.
Here's a really good tip. Never double-cross a Drow, especially one as clever as Ellis. Now, there are a lot of Russian gangsters who are doing their best to learn that the hard way.
Fortunately, Ellis still has friends in all the right places who are willing to lend a hand with a few new magical tricks. Will they be enough to stop the city's version of a really big bang? Will Ellis get everyone to safety, or was she just the bait for a more dangerous plot?
