Heart Of Stone( Series - The Negotiator )

The first title in The Negotiator series. Attorney Margrit Knight has found the perfect man--except he is a gargoyle wanted for murder. When Alban Kround comes to Margrit for help to help clear his name, he reveals he is one of a handful of Old Races--gargoyles, vampires, selkies, and djinn--left living in the human world. Original.

WHAT SECRETS LIE SHROUDED IN DARKNESS?

Okay, so jogging through Central Park after midnight wasn't a bright idea. But Margrit Knight never thought she'd encounter a dark new world filled with magical beings--not to mention a dying woman and a mysterious stranger with blood on his hands. Her logical, lawyer instincts told her it couldn't all be real-- but she could hardly deny what she'd seen...and touched.

The mystery man, Alban, was a gargoyle. One of the fabled Old Races who had hidden their existence for centuries. Now he was a murder suspect, and he needed Margrit's help to take the heat off him and find the real killer. And as the dead pile up, it's a race against the sunrise to clear Alban's name and keep them both alive....
