Dark Matters

Cassie Lester is an insurance actuary who manages risk and yet sees none in her life. After an encounter in a mall parking lot she finds her life has been a lie and finds herself on the run, in complete ignorance of the world that has just opened itself to her. Baxter "Bax" Clancy is a history professor who deal in ancient "artifacts" and as a side line hunts Demons that are the scourge of the magical world. When he sees Cassie is an attempted kidnapping he rushes in to be the hero and save her, never knowing the depths of danger to which he's opened himself. Together Cassie and Bax discover the truth about Cassie and open a world to her that Bax "knows" but has not truly seen. They find themselves caught up in a fight between gods and goddesses of a world that's been shunned by most of the rest of the universe. When Cassie is revealed to be something most thought was a myth, they find themselves on the run from the most dangerous predator on Earth, a Demon.
