Produktbeschreibung
Witches and warlocks abide in Birmingham, Alabama in three ancient Houses-Rose, Iron and Stone. They arrived over a century ago to draw their powers from the abundant ores beneath Red Mountain. Rose Brighton, a Birmingham police detective, is the last witch of House of Rose and possibly the most dangerous thing since the hydrogen bomb. A terrifying encounter with House of Iron has mentally crippled Becca, her best friend. While Becca struggles to find herself, Rose battles to control her own abilities and the supernatural attraction that pulls her to a mysterious, handsome warlock. When magic kicks in at the scene of her first homicide, she learns that her partner-the mentor and friend she depends on-is lying to her, and she is on her own. Unraveling the murder entwines Rose in a web of greed and profit involving a promising new medicine. Someone is willing to kill to keep a cheap drug from the market. Not only do countless lives depend on Rose's skills as a detective, the fate of a unique race of people facing extinction also rests on her shoulders . . . and some of them are determined to kill her.
Autorenporträt
T. K. Thorne's childhood passion for storytelling deepened when she became a police officer in Birmingham, Alabama. "It was a crash course in life and what motivated and mattered to people." In her newest novels, House of Rose and House of Stone, murder and mayhem mix with a little magic when a police officer discovers she's a witch. Both her award-winning debut historical novels, Noah's Wife and Angels at the Gate, tell the stories of unknown women in famous biblical tales-the wife of Noah and the wife of Lot. Her first non-fiction book, Last Chance for Justice, the inside story of the investigation and trials of the 1963 Birmingham church bombing, was featured on the New York Post's "Books You Should Be Reading" list. Her newest nonfiction is Behind the Magic Curtain: Secrets, Spies, and Unsung White Allies of Birmingham's Civil Rights Days. T. K. loves traveling and speaking about her books and life lessons. She writes at her mountaintop home with a horse in the back yard and a cat and dog vying for her lap.
