The Department of Dark Errands: Book One: Shadowmarked

內容簡介

內容簡介 A new series for fans of Rebecca Yarros, Sarah J. Maas, and Deborah Harkness, The Department of Dark Errands is a dark, addictive romantasy about a midlife woman forced back into a dangerous magical spy ring--with the lover she thought was long dead. "A ferocious, emotionally grounded debut..."--Publishers Weekly Finally... The Harry Potter for midlife women, we've ALL been waiting for! At forty-five, Nyra Vex has built a quiet life in London, running an apothecary for women whose hot flashes and reinvention look suspiciously like magic. Then a shadowbeast breaches her wards and calls her by name, dragging her back into the Department of Dark Errands, London's secret magical intelligence service. Worse, they assign her a partner she never expected to see again. Beck Morran--once her lover, once her greatest mistake--has been dead for ten years. Now he's back. Changed. Dangerous. And still far too close. As shadow incursions spread across the city and old secrets begin to surface, Nyra is forced to confront a past she buried and the world she walked away from. Because this time, it isn't about saving Beck--it's about stopping the kind of power that shouldn't be trusted with the world. And some magic doesn't fade with age. It waits.

作者介紹

作者介紹 Imogen Vane is the debut author of The Department of Dark Errands, a midlife romantasy trilogy set in a world where espionage runs on forbidden magic and memory extraction is just another intelligence tool. Born and raised in the American Southwest, Vane draws from deep African American roots--generations of storytellers, healers, and seekers who understood that survival is its own form of alchemy. A proud autodidact and lifelong introvert, Imogen writes from the quiet margins, where observation sharpens into insight and imagination becomes a refuge. Her world-building is layered, literary, and lush--with heroines forged not from prophecy, but from reinvention. While she rarely appears in the spotlight, her connection with readers runs deep: through handwritten notes, late-night Q&As, and slow-burning Substack posts that often read like dispatches from another realm. The Dark Errands series marks a bold entry into the genre of romantasy, centering women over forty, long-hidden magic, and the cost of becoming visible after decades of erasure. It is at once a spy thriller, a reclamation, and a love story--for the self, for power, and for the strange, impossible beauty of starting over. Imogen lives somewhere warm and wild, where the shadows stretch long and the stars are worth staying up for. She is currently working on the second installment in the trilogy--and trusting the dark to lead the way.
