Serial Killer. Demons. A Haunted House. What in the world has Boyd Wright, cut-rate mage, gotten himself into? Our cowardly, foul-mouth, super-anti-hero takes his magical talents to Arizona to help a nice old lady with her haunted house. And to help his best friend, Detective Mary Ann Durkin, track down a serial killer. And then he discovers a nest of demon worshippers. You know he will run into the Others, sent here from beyond to possess humans, that he'll have to deal with. It was his job. And, oh yeah, Boyd gets a cat as partner. Not just an ordinary cat, but a tourist from another dimension here to see the sights. Of the first Orphan Magician novel, Walking in Dark Water: "'A refreshingly strange adventure that deftly mixes magic and action." - Kirkus Reviews
