Summary 
"New York Times bestselling author Kevin Hearne returns to the world of his beloved Iron Druid Chronicles in a spin-off series about an eccentric master of rare magic solving an uncanny mystery in Scotland. Al MacBharrais is both blessed and cursed. He is blessed with an extraordinary white moustache, an appreciation for craft cocktails-and a most unique magical talent. He can cast spells with magically enchanted ink and he uses his gifts to protect our world from rogue minions of various pantheons, especially the Fae. But he is also cursed. Anyone who hears his voice will begin to feel an inexplicable hatred for Al, so he can only communicate through the written word or speech apps. And his apprentices keep dying in peculiar freak accidents. As his personal life crumbles around him, he devotes his life to his work, all the while trying to crack the secret of his curse. But when his latest apprentice, Gordie, turns up dead in his Glasgow flat, Al discovers evidence that Gordie was living a secret life of crime. Now Al is forced to play detective-while avoiding actual detectives who are wondering why death seems to always follow Al. Investigating his apprentice's death will take him through Scotland's magical underworld, and he'll need the help of a mischievous hobgoblin if he's to survive"--

Summary 
"There's only one Al MacBharrais. Though other Scotsmen may have dramatic mustaches and a taste for fancy cocktails, Al also has a unique talent: He's a master of ink and sigil magic. In his gifted hands, paper and pen can work wondrous spells. But Al isn't quite alone: He is part of a global network of sigil agents who use their powers to protect the world from mischievous gods and strange monsters. So when a fellow agent disappears under sinister circumstances in Australia, Al leaves behind the cozy pubs and cafés of Glasgow and travels to the Dandenong Ranges in Victoria to solve the mystery.The trail to his colleague begins to pile up with bodies at alarming speed, so Al is grateful his friends have come to help-especially Nadia, his accountant who moonlights as a pit fighter. Together with a whiskey-loving hobgoblin known as Buck Foi and the ancient Druid Atticus O'Sullivan, along with his dogs, Oberon and Starbuck, Al and Nadia will face down the wildest wonders that Australia-and the supernatural world-can throw at them, and confront a legendary monster not seen in centuries" -- Front jacket flap.
