  Left broken and grief-stricken after deadly magic rips away her best friend, an alluring stranger offers seer Ellie Jones the one thing she’s never foreseen—hope.

  PICTURES OF YOU

  Magic moved the world. It started with a sway, then a rumble, then a twist in my guts as gravity moved sideways. I tried to speak. I tried to tell Chihiro—the one human who dared step across the boundary of my enchantments and extend her hand in friendship—to run. To turn away now and to never look back.

  She realized what she was looking at the moment I handed her the photographic plate. She didn’t need me to explain, or to point out where magic intersected with her reality.

  Death stared back at my friend through the sepia tones of the daguerreotype in her hand. Death as a shadowy mist over what should have been a happy image of her placing a lovely, sweet-scented bouquet of magenta roses on my side table.

  About the Author

  As a child, Kris took down a pack of hungry wolves with only a hardcover copy of The Dragonriders of Pern and a sharpened toothbrush. That fateful day set her on a path traversing many storytelling worlds—dabbles in film and comic books, time as a talent agent and a textbook photo coordinator, and a foray into nonfiction. After co-authoring Mind Shapes: Understanding the Differences in Thinking and Communication, Kris returned to academia. But she craved narrative and a richly-textured world of Fates, Shifters, and Dragons—and unexpected, true love.

  Kris lives in Minnesota with her husband, two daughters, Handsome Cat, and an entire menagerie of suburban wildlife bent on destroying her house. That battered-but-true copy of Dragonriders? She found it yesterday. It’s time to pay a visit to the woodpeckers.
