Legacy — Denise Tompkins

How to solve a murder in an altered reality? Elementary, my dear Watson. Adapt or die.

Looking back on the wish she made on Midsummer's Eve, Maddy Nitclif should have been more specific. She only wanted to escape the shadowy nightmares that plague her nights, not to be thrust into a completely altered reality.

If a strangely familiar, sexy dragon-shifter named Bahlin, who causes a never-to-be-mentioned-again fainting spell, isn't enough to make her question her sanity, it his insistence she's the Niteclif. Prophesied super-sleuth of the supernatural world -- a world that desperately needs her help.

Catapulted into a very different London ruled by dark mythology, mystery and murder, Maddy makes a few startling discoveries. Paranormal creatures exist. Getting shot really sucks. And her body responds remarkably well to dragon magic -- in more ways than simple wound healing.

But in this kill-or-be-killed world, reality bites. And Maddy must choose to go back to what she knows…or stay and fight for the man she knows can't live without.

Warning: This book contains a shape-shifting dragon with a Scottish accent, modern and archaic weapons, global inter-species politics that make democracy seem mild, some very steamy sex underground, a severed head, murder, and…oh yeah…a woman caught in the middle of it all.
