Henri is quite accustomed to dangerous and unusual cases landing in his lap. Being partnered to the Shinigami Detective likely has something to do with it. What he is NOT accustomed to is the queen herself marching into his lab and handing them such a case. Former Royal Mage Joseph Burtchell was found dead in his home, all signs pointing to murder. However, it’s in question as to how the murderer accomplished the deed—the house was locked, the wards fully up, and the body bearing a peculiar wound. It’s a locked room mystery, one with a suspiciously absent murder weapon and lack of suspects. Henri’s left baffled. Jamie’s excited, relishing the challenge the case represents. Who’s powerful enough to thwart a royal mage’s wards and murder him undetected?

Az ember egyik legnagyobb kincse az emlékezés. Egy olyan nyugdíjas korú írogatónak pedig, mint a k?nyv szerz?je, már rengeteg kincs van a birtokában, hiszen alig van a jelennek olyan eseménye, amely ne juttatná eszébe a múltat. Olyan múltat, amelyet meg lehet osztani az olvasóval. A múltat el?hívó esemény lehet akár egy jégcsap megpillantása, vagy egy hír valamely disznótorról, vagy akár az unoka meseigénye, mosolya. Lehet egy szilveszteri hangulat, vagy egy a padon ül? hajléktalan, s?t, akár egy a forgalmas járdán sürg?l?d? énekesmadár, vagy egy korsóból a f?ldre l?ttyintett víz, szóval bármi, amely megragadja a figyelmet. Mindegyikük emlékeket, gondolatokat ébresztett a szerz?ben, és ezzel t?rténeteket szült. A k?nyvben t?bb t?rténet szerepel. Olyan t?rténetek, amelyek nemcsak a szerz?nek, de bárkinek segíthetnek a jelen gondjai, nehézségei k?nnyebb elviselésében. A t?rténetek ugyanis szerteágazóak, így bárki találhat k?z?ttük a gondjait (még, ha r?vid id?re is, de) elfeledtet? olvasnivalót. A gondolatok persze néha magvasak, nehezebben emészthet?k, a legt?bbsz?r viszont meseszer?ek, adomázóak, k?nnyen elsajátíthatók. ?ppen olyan változatosak, mint maga az élet, hiszen ki ne várná izgatottan az ismeretlent, a holnapot, a j?v?t, amely mindig hozhat valami újat, váratlant, és amely mindig el tud varázsolni bennünket.
