Publisher's Synopsis
Magic is real.
Allison Merriweather is an investigative journalist and expert magician, working for the news site Sniphunt, and she is being punished. Why else would she be assigned to cover the North American Biannual Short Story Writing Competition?
It may be the biggest sporting event of the year, but it's not her beat. With nothing to investigate, it's all color commentary and jockeying to interview famous authors.
Her fellow reports are glaring daggers at her over the assignment. It must be punishment.
Then things start to happen, famous authors start losing hard, and Allison starts to wonder if her editor is psychic. And precognition isn't even a thing.

"He tracked me," Allison said, muttering, all but growling, as if arguing with herself. "He couldn't have tracked me, but I was supposed to be there."
"What are you going on about?" Shelly asked.
"Why would he be looking for me?" said as if Shelly hadn't spoken. "What did he hope to accomplish?"
"I swear I have no idea." Shelly squinted at the monitor as if it was one of those 3D puzzles. "Are we looking at the same thing?"
"He wanted me to see." Allison gripped the railing hard, pressing down with both hands. "React, make a scene."
"You are making a scene."
