Summary
Lance Alexander never wanted to impersonate a serial killer. He especially never wanted to do it in prison. But when the police need someone they can “trust” to pose as the Necromancer and infiltrate a kingpin’s cell, Lance gets volunteered — by his uncle, his father, and fate itself. Inside, Lance juggles: • A kingpin who wants to hire him for murder • Guards who think he’s a vampire • A courtroom meltdown featuring telepathic yelling • His father secretly working as a prison guard • And a terrified inmate who literally dies of fright Dark comedy, supernatural politics, and family dysfunction collide in this wild Magicians‑verse adventure. Tune in for a story where nothing goes to plan — and Lance wouldn’t have it any other way. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
