When the truth leaves them nothing to hold onto, they are forced into a partnership neither expected...or wanted.Because in life, who you trust is as important as who you are.

STRANGE CASE, an Urban Fantasy: In this final chapter of Mitch and Eden's story, everyone will be tested. Morality and honor weighed against getting the job done.
