Perfect for you if...

You love urban fantasy with a hard-boiled detective edge and want someone like Harry Dresden solving real crimes with actual stakes.
You're after longer series that reward commitment, with a magic system detailed enough to matter but not so dense it slows the plot.
You enjoy stories where the mentor character has genuine scars from their past and isn't just waiting to be heroic again.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer your protagonists reluctant in theory only, not someone who genuinely resists getting involved and slows the opening act.
You're looking for standalone novels rather than book one of a series where you'll need to commit to more instalments.
You want romance front and centre, not sidelined while mysteries and magic systems take the lead.

About this book

Adair Finch is a powerful warlock and private investigator who has handled cases involving corporate vampires, murderous werewolves, and fae royalty. After losing a case in which his brother died, he retired from magic, investigation work, and public life. When twelve-year-old witch Bree Blackstone arrives at his door in the middle of the night, Finch learns that her mother has been murdered and an assassin is now pursuing Bree. Though reluctant, Finch agrees to help. In doing so, he discovers that dangerous events have been unfolding in town during his absence. He must revive his old skills and magical abilities to address the threat before it escalates.
