Murder and Magic
By: Afia Paracha Tarreton is a city run by magic. There's the common magic that the less fortunate can use, though they can't always afford it. Sagery is the magic of the wealthy, that only they can learn. Isaveth Breck lives with her father and three sisters in a poorer part of Tarreton. She has a knack for creating simple spell tablets, baked squares that can release magic, but has a hard time selling them. Things get worse when her father, Urias Breck, is accused of killing the city governor for the benefit of a political club. Since he isn't nobility, and just a stonemason, things seem pretty bleak. But while trying to sell her spell tablets, she meets Quiz. Quiz lives on the streets, and has an eyepatch. They become great friends, and he begins to help her find out who really murdered the governor. They investigate, visiting the College, where the governor's office was, and work to solve the mystery. Together, they set on the path of proving Isaveth's father innocent. To solve the mystery yourself, read "A Pocket Full of Murder" by R.J. Anderson. Picture Source: “‘A Pocket Full of Murder’ by R.J.
