First in the compelling paranormal mystery series: Wilde Investigations. When those who pronounce judgment are omniscient, can a verdict ever be overturned?

Yannia escaped a restrictive life in the Wild Folk conclave where she was raised, but her background marks her as an outsider in the city. Her origins lend her the sensory abilities of all of nature, yet Yannia is lonely and struggling to adapt to life in the city. The case could be the break she needs.
She enlists the help of her only friend, a Bird Shaman named Karrion, and together they accept the challenge of proving a guilty man innocent. So begins a breathless race against time against all conceivable odds. Can Yannia and Karrion save a man who has been infallibly judged guilty?

Part 2 of the Wilde Investigations series
In this new paranormal mystery from the author of Fallible Justice, an investigator looks into multiple murders-of the same man…
When private investigator Yannia Wilde returns to the conclave where she grew up-and to the deathbed of her father, the conclave's Elderman-she is soon drawn back into the Wild Folk way of life, and into a turbulent relationship with Dearon, her betrothed.
Back in London, Tim Wedgebury is surprised when police appear on his doorstep with a story about how he was stabbed in the West End. His body disappeared before the paramedics' eyes. Given that Tim is alive and well, the police chalk the first death up to a prank. But when Tim "dies" a second time, DI Jamie Manning calls Yannia. To assist with the case, she must return to the life she built in Old London-but as Yannia considers where her loyalties lie, will this trip to the city be her last?
