The howls of Guards on hunt shatter the air.

Trinity can’t let them catch. She has to hide but she’s surrounded by river and forest.

A splash draws her gaze and the river-man’s flipper slips under the water. Forest it is, because there’s no way she’s going into the river.

She races into the woods, backpack slamming against her shoulders as the calls of the Guards draw closer. Brush breaks and crashes behind her. They’re too close. There’s nothing for her to do but surrender.

She slowly turns, but it’s not the Guards who have caught her. A Tracker, the deadliest of predators, towers above her, front legs hanging down like arms. Brindle fur covers its body and its eyes glow yellow in the shadowed forest.

She should scream but all she can do is think, “Someone should tell it that they no longer exist in the wild.”

Breaking curses. Battling witchcraft. Revenge.

All in a day’s work for Ozzy Turner, folk wizard.

Is a witch throwing curses your way? Something scary scratching at your window in the night? Then I’ve got just the charm for you.

Mostly, though, I find things. Lost treasures, missing loved ones—if you need something found, I’m your guy.

So when a grieving father hired me to track down a family heirloom stolen by a sticky-fingered hobgoblin, I was happy to help.

No one was supposed to wind up dead. Especially not me.

But they made a mistake when they put a bullet in my stomach and left me for the worms.

They didn’t bury me deep enough.

And if I can’t send it back where it came from, the treasure hunters won’t be the only ones paying the ultimate price.
