Stone and a Hard Place: An Alastair Stone Urban Fantasy Novel (Alastair Stone Chronicles Book 1) (The Alastair Stone Chronicles)

Safe as Houses? Not so Much.

Alastair Stone has it hard enough keeping his two lives—mundane Occult Studies professor and powerful mage—separate, until an old friend asks him to take on a new apprentice.

Especially after a university colleague wants him to investigate a massive old house for things that go bump in the night.

Easy job, right? Just turn up, put on a little show, and announce the house is clean.

Problem: The house isn’t clean.

If Stone can’t deal with the malevolent spirit reawakening in the basement, he’ll have a disaster on his hands.

And if that’s not bad enough, a trio of dark mages want to help it break free. They’ll do whatever it takes—including seducing Stone’s young apprentice and using him against his master—to get what they’re after.

With time running out, Stone has to stay alive long enough to uncover the spirit’s secrets. But even if he does, he might not have enough power to send it back.
