Flatline — S.A. Magnusson

I hide from death trying to save lives, but I can't hide from my magic forever. I've avoided the magic on the this side of the Veil, staying within the realm of the nonmagical while training as an ER doctor. It's a way of hiding my dark magic from the mage council. If they discover my type of magic, the chances are good they'll burn it out of me, and in doing so, destroy my mind. Everything changes when I make the mistake of saving a sexy knight of the mage council from a magical attack. Not only am I revealed to the council, but when a high-ranking member of the council is poisoned, and no magical treatment is effective, I'm called upon to figure out what happened -- and how to save him. Now I'm caught up in a magical plot beyond my abilities. Survival requires I use the dark magic flowing within me, but can I do it and avoid detection? And can I learn why my magic is so different than others with dark magic? I'm used to living on the edge of the magical world, but when I'm thrust into the heart of it, I need to use my training to protect me, or I'll lose everything I've worked for. Flatline is a fast-paced fantasy mystery with a mixture of medicine and magic that will leave you breathless.
