TARBABY TROUBLE is the opening book of the urban fantasy series Mudflat. Mudflat is that corner of modern Seattle where old magic lives. And so does Claire, a young woman trying to earn her living with a couple of part-time jobs and hindered by crooks who want to use the small bit of magic she has inherited. Toss in a nearby "other world" complete with barbarian warriors and magicians and warlords, plus a young man who owns a wicked sword and a wicked smile, and Claire finds herself lured into life-or-death trouble.
