The Carnival of Light didn't exactly go the way the ECU had imagined. We ended up putting the best show in the world for them.

Without spells, we don't have much hope to make our place in the world.

I never signed up to be a private investigator with a snarky, talking cat for a partner, but there's no backing down now. Especially considering a prominent politician was murdered pretty much right in my backyard. The only witnesses were the senator's two hairless cats, Jacques and Jillianne. Normally pets want to help us solve their owner's murders, but this time it seems the two devious felines might actually be the ones who committed it....
