In the blink of an eye to her, everyone she loves will be gone. Being the only elf in the world is a lonely future, but at least she has her cat to talk to.<\/p>\n<p>Good thing he talks back.<\/p>\n<p>Solstice doesn&#8217;t have too long to mourn as someone thoughtfully sends a magical assassin to take her mind off the family she&#8217;ll eventually lose. She&#8217;s fairly certain the Ordo Sanguinem Aeternam didn&#8217;t summon it since they&#8217;re far too inept for elder magic. Before she can figure out where it came from, her friend Jade asks for help investigating a stolen mummy.<\/p>\n<p>Upon discovering the mummy stole itself, she realizes New York is about to have a serious problem of the ancient kind if she doesn\u2019t deal with it fast\u2026 and someone powerful still wants her dead.<\/p>\n<p>Between an out-of-control mummy and a magical assassin, outliving her family is the least of Solstice&#8217;s worries.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.matthewcoxbooks.com\/wordpress\/books\/\">Books Main<\/a> \u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.matthewcoxbooks.com\/wordpress\/winter-solstice-series\/\">Winter Solstice series<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back home from Russia, Solstice Winters confronts a scarier problem than a lizard the size of a garbage truck: immortality.
