It’s a case she can’t refuse.

Spell-slinger. Vampire-slayer. Magical albino ferret-rescuer.

Meet Jacqueline Denna Knight, the best wizard detective in the city.

Jax turns vampires to ash and pain into magic. She also has a knack for finding things. So when a distraught—and obscenely wealthy—elf calls Jax at midnight to hire her for an intriguing job, she grabs the opportunity with both hands…

But what Jax doesn’t know is that this case is going to unravel her life. She’ll get tangled up with a host of intriguing characters, most of whom are not who they appear to be.

As Jax speeds down a path toward the most powerful vampire clan in the country, she’ll have to put everything on the line.

Will she be able to use her unique brand of magic to save the Realm?

Jax Knight

Wizard Detective · Johannesburg

MEET JAX KNIGHT

She turns her pain into magic. Literally.

My name is Jacquelyn Denna Knight, and I turn my pain into magic.

Jax is a wizard private eye working the supernatural underworld of Johannesburg — the city the vampires run, the orcs own, and the detectives with wands try to keep from burning down. She's smart, dry, and barely holding it together. She has a crossbow on her back, a stolen wand from her dead mother's hand, and a magical albino ferret in her pocket who she suspects is smarter than her.

🐾

Gizmo

Magical Albino Ferret

Found in a goblin bar. Never left her pocket. Saves her life. Repeatedly.

🩺

Darick

Mage Healer

Patches her back together. Keeps her secrets. Unknown origins. Six books of slow burn.

🧛

Lysander

Vampire

Has a file on her entire life. Knows her APGAR score. She doesn't know his last name.

🔮

Ferra

Dwarf · Surrogate Mother

Tech genius. Runs the Copper Cog and Ale. Feeds everyone. Worries constantly.

👮‍♀️

Morgan

Human Police Captain

Best friend. Brass balls. Lipstick. A dachshund named Pincher. Covers for Jax constantly.

❓

The Elf Client

The Case That Changes Everything

Obscenely wealthy. Calls at midnight. Not who she appears to be. Neither is anyone else.

🧙‍♀️

A wizard. Not a witch.

Jax is a detective who happens to use magic — the distinction changes everything.

🐾

Gizmo the magical ferret.

He lives in her pocket. He saves her life. Repeatedly. He gets no credit.

🩸

Slow-burn romance. Six books of it.

Darick keeps her secrets. Lysander has a file on her entire life. Neither should be trusted.

FROM THE AUTHOR

Hear JT Lawrence talk about Book 1.

JT Lawrence explains what inspired the Blood Magic series, who Jax Knight really is, and why she set an urban fantasy series in Johannesburg when everyone else was writing London and Chicago.

I couldn't put it down. I laughed at bits, cried at bits. It captured me heart, body and soul.

★★★★★

Like Gin Blanco meets Harry Dresden

The main character is like if Gin Blanco and Harry Dresden had a baby. That is high praise — I love them dearly. The HighFire Crown built a world of magic, mythology and mayhem. I am super excited for the next books.
