Kate Daniels
The world suffered a magic apocalypse. Magic comes and ebbs in waves, without warning, gnawing tall buildings into dust and spawning monsters. When the magic is up, guns refuse to fire and mages reign supreme. When the magic is down, electricity returns and guns can fire. It’s a world of shapeshifters and navigators who pilot undead like remote controlled cars.
In this world lives Kate Daniels, a no-name merc and a loner. She’s hiding in plain sight, but eventually all secrets must come to light and when hers burst into the open, it will change Atlanta forever.
