This is book II of The Sorcerer Series: When Duke Diamond gets hired to protect a gun-toting barmaid and her son, he has no way of knowing the forces of evil he will have to face. Along the way he will learn of a magical world he never imagined. A fortune teller and an ex-Catholic priest are just two of the allies he will come to rely on. While the rest of the world worries about our first contact with an approaching alien spacecraft, Diamond and his team that under any other set of circumstances he would consider to be fruitcakes work frantically to protect the mother and son from an evil force they thought they'd already defeated.
