Fantasy Urban
What happens when The Firm meets Anita Blake? You get
the Halls of Power—our modern world, but twisted. Law,
finance, the military, and politics are under the sway of
long-lived vampires, werewolves, and the elven Alfar. Humans
make the best of rule by “the Spooks,” and contend among
themselves to affiliate with the powers-that-be, in order to
avoid becoming their prey. Very loyal humans are rewarded
with power over other women and men. Very lucky humans are
selected to join the vampires, werewolves, and elves—or, on
occasion, to live at the Seelie Court. Linnet Ellery is the offspring of an affluent Connecticut
family dating back to Colonial times. Fresh out of law
school, she’s beginning her career in a powerful New York
“white fang” law firm. She has high hopes of eventually
making partner. But strange things keep happening to her. In a workplace
where some humans will eventually achieve immense power and
centuries of extra lifespan, office politics can be vicious
beyond belief. After some initial missteps, she finds
herself sidelined and assigned to unpromising cases. Then,
for no reason she can see, she becomes the target of
repeated, apparently random violent attacks, escaping injury
each time through increasingly improbable circumstances.
However, there’s apparently more to Linnet Ellery than a
little old-money human privilege. More than even she knows.
And as she comes to understand this, she’s going to shake up
the system like you wouldn’t believe…
