There's a specter haunting Las Vegas--and her name is Adina Venture. With the power to assume an incorporeal form and track people down through their mementos and heirlooms, AdinaVenture is the hired gun no one ever sees coming. There are no contracts. No conversations. Just gruesome accidents, untraceable and custom-made. When Adina is accused of killing a valued member of the clandestine magical Order, her history of operating undetected becomes a massive liability. Now, she must find the real culprit to get the Order off her back. Literally. Until the case is closed, she will be Lashed to Chief Inquisitor Breitling, a sullen investigator with a knack for mental destruction and a searing hatred for traitors. But what begins as a simple clearing of her name leads the pair deep into an unseen side of Sin City--one that's rife with Operators of magic. Club moguls who manufacture memories. Cutthroat businessmen who can stop time. And beneath it all lies a powerful force that no one, not even Adina, can control. Suddenly, proving her innocence isn't as easy as she thought it would be. And the longer it takes to find the real killer, the tighter the Lash between her and Inquisitor Breitling seems to grow...
