Meet Rye Gannon, a private detective who knows her craft and doesn't blink, even when she discovers that magic is real - and that she has the unusual ability to find it. Rye is hired by the Harpocrates Society, a secret organization, to use her newly discovered talent to find and secure magical items, and she is drawn into a world of adventure and intrigue she hadn't known was possible. When a magical object is stolen from a curio shop in Omaha, Nebraska, Rye is called in to find the item. When she learns the artifact has the power to bring and control rain, the knowledge leads to a trail that winds through farmlands in drought and desert landscapes, as well as to the kidnapping of a village leader's only daughter. Her search reveals the power of desperation and hope - and of sacrifice. Rye must pull on every skill she has, new and old, to save a life and to restore ecological balance. The journey will also reveal long-hidden secrets and a family connection within the Harpocrates Society she never knew existed. The Water in Our Blood is an action-packed mystery full of magic, dangerous secrets, curious history, and adventure!
