Synopsis



FBI profiler Jace Valchek was pulled into
this parallel realm to hunt for Aristotle Stoker, a human serial killer
who preys on vampires and werewolves. Now she works for the National
Security Agency of the Unnatural States of America—and her boss is a
vampire. At a bizarre crime scene, Jace finds a bloodsucker
murdered by magic, fried to the bone and dressed in the costume of the
comic book hero the Flash—a character who isn't supposed to exist here.
Comic books have been outlawed for their powers, including crossover
spells like the one that transported Jace to this world. Soon, she's
following a trail of dead bodies into the sinister underworld of
black-market comics—where a deranged madman gives new meaning to the
term "super-villain."

She's stuck in......more
