Stone and a Hard Place: An Alastair Stone Urban Fantasy Novel

Stone and a Hard Place: An Alastair Stone Urban Fantasy Novel (Alastair Stone Chronicles Book 1) (The Alastair Stone Chronicles)

SAFE AS HOUSES

Itâ€™s hard enough for Alastair Stone to keep his two livesâ€”powerful mage and mundane Occult Studies professorâ€”separate without an old friend asking him to take on a new apprentice. Especially after a university colleague wants him to investigate a massive old house for things that go bump in the night. Still, Stone figures itâ€™s an easy job: just turn up, put on a little show, and announce that the house is clean.

Only it isnâ€™t. A malevolent spirit is reawakening in the basement, imprisoned between dimensions and intent on escape. If it succeeds, countless people will die. Worse, a trio of dark mages want to help it break free so they can control it for their own sinister purposes. Theyâ€™ll do whatever it takesâ€”including seducing Stoneâ€™s young apprentice and using him against his masterâ€”to get what theyâ€™re after.

With time running out, Stone has to stay alive long enough to uncover the spiritâ€™s secrets. But even if he does, he fears that his own power wonâ€™t be enough to send it back.
