Synopsis

“She vanished to protect the world. Now she’s back—to burn it down or save it.”

A midlife spy with outlawed magic. An ex-lover back from the dead. And a conspiracy that could unravel the Department from within.

A forbidden magic. A dead partner who isn’t. A spy who thought she was done.

Ten years ago, Nyra Vex faked her own death to escape the Department of Dark Errands—London’s elite magical intelligence agency, where truth potions flow like gin and loyalty is sealed in blood. Once the Department’s most lethal asset, Nyra walked away with a head full of secrets and a past she couldn’t outrun.

Now, the Department wants her back.

Her ex-partner, long presumed dead, has reappeared—cursed, compromised, and carrying dangerous knowledge about a rogue magical entity known only as the Red Accord. With enemies closing in and old loyalties called into question, Nyra must navigate a web of shadowbeasts, memory extractions, and the one thing more dangerous than a double-crossed spy: a second chance at love.

But Nyra didn’t survive this long by playing by the rules—and she has no intention of starting now.

Shadowmarked is the explosive first installment in The Department of Dark Errands, a spellbinding blend of espionage, slow-burn romance, and steampunk-fueled sorcery. Perfect for fans of The Atlas Six, Fourth Wing, and The Night Circus—with a twist of midlife rebellion.
