Pre-order what?! DJINN & TONIC is my newest novel, an urban fantasy thriller for lovers of noir and djinn with a punk vibe. It’s a love letter to both genie stories and being an exhausted 20-something with a shit job, ride-or-die friends, and a demanding boss.
Remmy is an immortal genie trapped in a human body, and while she still has to grant wishes, she lacks the phenomenal cosmic power to do it with magic. When you make a wish, she has to do it the old-fashioned way.
DJINN & TONIC drops on ebook June 26th, and on paperback July 3rd.
Back of the book:
“What if a genie didn’t have powers? What if you wished for a billion dollars and your genie started planning a heist?
Welcome to Remmy’s life: crap work for ungrateful wishers. Her only reward? More wishes, more work. She and her djinn friends have been stuck in 20-something human bodies since Biblical times and—other than a few neat parlor tricks—they can’t snap their fingers and make your wish come true. What they do have is a few thousand years of experience making the impossible possible.
When Remmy’s newest lamp-rubber turns out to be the loathsome owner of a Fortune 500 company with dirty dealings, Remmy finds herself unwillingly descending into a murder mystery that crosses borders, oceans, and every line of human decency.”
