A dedicated cop, a good son, a loyal partner...Ask anyone who knew him then, that's how they would have described Lachlan Graham, before an undercover operation went bad, and his werewolf partner, Vector Clanahan, decided to leave the Seattle Police Department for a job with with FBI. Now, three years later, Lachlan has thrown away his career, fallen in debt, and his downstairs neighbor is trying to hire him as a private investigator. All of that seems manageable until a psychic leaves him a message in tarot cards shortly before she's violently murdered. Meanwhile, Vector Clanahan's about to return to his old stomping grounds as a serial killer he's been tracking leads him right to his ex-partner's front door. Feelings between the two respark as they put aside past pains to work together to catch this killer before he can perform a magical ritual for ultimate power, three generations in the making. Welcome to an alternate vision of Seattle, where the magical and supernatural are known. Where you're just as likely to find werewolves in Pike Place Market as fish mongers. Where death comes in many guises and love is never easy. The Profane Series is a companion to The Blood & Bone Series.
