A Case of Possession by Kj Charles

A Case of Possession (Charm of Magpies, #2)

by Kj Charles

Magic in the blood. Danger in the streets.

Lord Crane has never had a lover quite as elusive as Stephen Day. He knows Stephen’s job as justiciar requires secrecy, but the magician is doing his disappearing act more than seems reasonable—especially since Crane will soon return to his home in China. When a blackmailer threatens to expose their illicit relationship, there's only one thing stopping Crane from leaving the country he loathes: Stephen.

Stephen has problems of his own. As he investigates a plague of giant rats sweeping London, his sudden increase in power, boosted by his blood-and-sex bond with Crane, is rousing suspicion that he’s turned warlock. With all eyes on him, the threat of exposure grows. Stephen could lose his friends, his job and his liberty over his relationship with Crane. He’s not sure if he can take that risk much longer. Crane isn’t sure if he can ask him to.

The rats are closing in, and something has to give…

Great continuation of the series!
Really intense plot, intresting twists and also love story! I like how characters grow and don't lose their own voice in eachother. Also finally some strong ladies, I'm a big fan of them, wish we could read about them some more.
Onr thing that changed - from dual perspective in book one we now have only Crane's, that's a shame, I would like to read from Stephen's view too, but it would be feelings overload😍
Starting next book rn!
