Being a Fury has its ups and downs. A positive is using
magical gifts to help and defend humanity. One of the downs
is that by letting her rage fully vent, a Fury loses her
Amphisbaena -- two snake tattoos, magical connectors and
companions -- and becomes a Harpy.
Marissa Holloway has to constantly battle her Fury's rage
on a daily basis as a medical investigator. When she dives
into a case of missing magical creatures and must ask for
help from not only her ex but Harpies as well, Marissa
finds herself immersed in intrigue that ignites her rage.
Not only does she want to help discover why magical
individuals are going missing and getting killed, because
that's what Furies do, incidents keep occurring that make
the situation personal.
The bright start to a new series, RED HOT FURY is a
constant maze of excellently realized twists and turns
combined with a sharp sense of humor.
As a Fury, Marissa Holloway belongs to an Arcane race that
has avenged wrongdoing since time immemorial. As Boston's
Chief Magical Investigator for the past five years, she's
doing what she was born to: solving supernatural
crimes.
It's far from business as usual when the body
of one of Riss's sister Furies washes up in Boston harbor.
Riss discovers that the corpse's identity has been magically
altered, but as soon as she reports her findings, she's
immediately--and inexplicably--suspended from her job. Then
a human assassin makes an attempt on her life, and Riss
starts to realize that someone may be trying to stir up
strife between mortals and Arcanes.
When a Fury gets
mad, she gets even, and Riss is determined to untangle this
case. Without the support of the mortal PD, Riss turns to
the one man she can trust to watch her back--shapeshifting
Warhound Scott Murphy. But since Scott is also Riss's ex,
she'll have to keep a tight leash on more than just the
supernatural rage that feeds her power as they try to solve
a murder--and stop a war...
