The Lutist (The Occasionally Dark History of Saskia Challoner)

By A.A. Spectre

Magic is sexy! Magic is hot! If someone took your magic away you'd want it back. Saskia Challoner, the Lutist, desperately wants to regain hers. Now there's a chance. Saskia has inherited something ancient and supernatural. Once a closely guarded secret in a world of mysteries; now something that malevolent agencies want to take from her; Saskia must choose, between the dark magic of a Compliance of Thorns, and the protection of a beautiful young Sorceress, and the pledge of a mortal covenant. Not such an easy choice, when you have a dark side like Saskia Challoner's. Saskia sees ghosts; a six-foot eleven-inch smirking ghost on his way to becoming an entity; a murdered girl, who still goes to meet her killer; lonely spirits in dark places; Moochers in graveyards, and much worse. Because in Saskia's world, you are never more than fifty feet from something supernatural. quote: 'Even if denied as by Saskia Challoner's fetter, magic never fully went away; part of it found a way out, a winding secret path through the corridors of the psyche and the personality; it came out through the hot gates of the soul, to manifest in other ways; in Saskia it existed in her eyes.' quote: "This was a feral cat, she thought, defending what belonged to it. The realization shocked her. Saskia spoke softly. 'I am so not interested; I've too many plans for her tonight.' Saskia leaned towards him, almost conspiratorially. 'A little boy like you would only get in the way.'"
