Snake Oil Bullet

It should have been a routine mission: stop the sale of a bio-organic weapon, round up the bad guys, and fly home before breakfast.

Harmony Black and Jessie Temple are field agents for Vigilant Lock, a covert agency that defends humanity against supernatural threats; espionage, monsters, and mayhem are all in a day's work. What they find this time, though, is a puzzle demanding an answer. An old nemesis of the team has been murdered, and they didn't pull the trigger.

Unsure if they're dealing with a friend or a foe, the investigation leads Harmony and Jessie into a world of big money and bigger lies. The trail of clues leads from a shady tech startup in Silicon Valley to a "wellness retreat" for millionaires in the Catskill Mountains, a whirlwind tour through the lifestyles of the rich, famous, and dead. As the ghosts of the team's past come back to haunt them, a new enemy is rising in the shadows. An enemy who knows exactly who Harmony and Jessie are, what they're capable of, and how to take them down.

This mystery is a trap woven from lies and illusions, and it's about to spring shut.
