Description
"Hoping to help a new client, The Hexologists, Iz and Warren Wilby, enter the studio of a famously reclusive painter. They find her apartment violently ransacked and her body on the floor. With no one else to blame, the police point the finger at the Wilbies. But just as they begin to protest their innocence, an explosion ruptures the night, and they awake several hours earlier with no recollection of the corpse or crime. To make matters worse, their bag of magical artifacts, which contains the portal to their best friend (and all-around lovely dragon) Felivox has lost its power. And the painter's corpse is once again discovered, alongside one of Iz's hexes. To save their friend, solve a murder, and prove their innocence, the Hexologists will call upon old friends and enemies alike. Because magic is going haywire and the rules of their world are shifting like sand. The Hexologists always solve a case, but are they too late to untangle the threads of their new reality . . . or too early?"--
