To Be Tried

Ria is long overdue for a break from all things supernatural. In the past year, she uncovered a conspiracy, outwitted a cunning dictator, and overthrew a despotic regime. All she wanted was a little vacation, time to put up her feet, push away her nightmares, and maybe even take a nap.

But that just won't fit in her busy schedule.

Called back to the place where her adventure began, Ria is ordered to track down and apprehend the man who, undoubtedly, had a hand in the plot that nearly made Ria a dictator's puppet. She's more than willing to take on the job, but maybe that's just what he wants.

There's a plan weaving its way around Ria, one that's centuries in the making, and all this man needs is her cooperation to see it through. She's loyal to a fault, but he drives a hard bargain: join his side and spares her friends, family, and countless innocents from death, destruction, and mayhem.

That nap is just going to have to wait.
