A race of Djinn, or Genies as they are known to Westerners, the Ifrit can read a fire and mold it to their will. That makes her job a whole lot easier. When her crew attends a series of deadly arsons that appear to have been lit by one of her kind, Azar knows it is up to her to track down the rogue Ifrit and stop him before he kills more people. There's only one problem; she's spent a lifetime avoiding other Djinn and ensuring that the Djinn Ruling Council does not know of her existence. A cold and brutal regime, the Djinn Council want to conscript her into slavery for one hundred years. As she pursues the Rogue, Azar will break the rules of secrecy that surround her world and enlist the help of human Arson Detective, Keenan Reilly. A chauvinist to the core, Detective Reilly has always rubbed Azar up the wrong way, mostly because she'd like him to rub her up the right way, despite her better judgment. But if she is to save her friends and the millions of people who call New York City home, then she is going to have to make a few sacrifices and bend a few rules.

The Djinn have revelled in their position as the apex predator of the supernatural world for longer than Azar could remember. They held all the power and they wielded it with brutal finality. Being forced into fifty years of servitude only confirmed what she already knew; the Djinn Council put their pride above doing what was right or fair. Admittedly, it could have been worse... moreThe Djinn have revelled in their position as the apex predator of the supernatural world for longer than Azar could remember. They held all the power and they wielded it with brutal finality. Being forced into fifty years of servitude only confirmed what she already knew; the Djinn Council put their pride above doing what was right or fair. Admittedly, it could have been worse. She has a reasonably cushy job, a budding romance with the hunky Bast, a few unexpected friends, and a little bit of freedom so she didn't beat against the gilded cage of her servitude too much. But all that changes when Djinn kids begin showing up torn to pieces and set on fire. Tasked with tracking down a hate group that has it out for her kind, she travels to Canada on her first mission with The Adel, the Djinn military. However, what she finds in the Canadian wilderness will threaten everything she takes for granted; her relationships, her sense of self, and even the very foundations of the Djinn regime. The Djinn are about to find out that even the predators can quickly become the prey. less
