Nothing is ever a coincidence in LaLa Land. When a friend's ex-wife is murdered, the city's guardian Drow, Ellis Burton suspects something more is going on. But what?
The clues say the police cannot be trusted in this case. The question is, who can be?
And who is covering up the truth, and why?
Someone in L.A. has been tracking Ellis and she soon finds out it's the senior Drow, her father.
It's not a fun family reunion. But is there really such a thing?
She doesn't have time for his threats or shenanigans. There are more dangerous things happening in the city of make-believe.
Like the locket she's wearing. It might be the key to figuring out if her mother is in hiding or dead. Can the half Drow figure it out?
Ellis is determined. She will get the answers she seeks while protecting the city she has grown to love, from the shadows.
