A trio of redheads and a treasure trove of sorcery plunge Garrett into the heart of a deadly hunt for power. The hilarious adventures of a human detective in a mixed-up fantasy world.

It should have been a simple job. But for Garrett, a human detective in a world of gnomes, tracking down the woman to whom his dead pal Danny left a fortune in silver is no slight task. Even with the aid of Morley, the toughest half-elf around, Garrett isn't sure he'll make it out alive from a land where magic can be murder, the dead still talk, and vampires are always hungry for human blood.
