The Elucidations of Drake

"Something is coming, and beside it, societies of black magicians engaged in international conspiracies are child's play." Disturbed by a vision of a great evil awakening, the magician known only as Drake must leave what he hoped would be his final retirement in Northumbria and return to Boston. There, with the help - and hindrance - of an enigmatic occult society, Drake must solve perplexing crimes, confront vicious murderers, and - hardest of all - guide lost souls back to themselves before it is too late. Equal parts urban noir, occult detective, and magical primer, The Elucidations of Drake is the first volume of the thrilling Drake Chronicles
