Synopsis:
The Hank Mossberg, Private Ogre detective series takes place in the gritty streets of San Francisco and in the undercity, a massive underground home to thousands of fae. Here, nymphs walk darkened streets, imps are slave traders, and gnomes are elite hackers.
In Murder in the Boughs, the hard-boiled ogre/detective must race against time to rescue a kidnapped girl, expose a ring of pixie dust dealers, and find the killer of a high-elf kingpin. While the crimes appear unconnected, each comes with a surprising twist...
