Welcome to the Salt Mine, the secret organization that monitors and manages supernatural activity from its headquarters in the deep mineral deposits underneath Detroit, Michigan, USA. When magic is real, someone has to rein it in. This boxed set contains three Salt Mine novels.

Rest Assured (The Salt Mine Series 7)

Agent David Wilson—codename Fulcrum—wakes up from his encounter with Baba Yaga to find that she's shunted him to Avalon, a realm fit only for the honorable dead…except he is very much alive.

In a desperate bid to escape, Wilson calls upon Hor-Nebwy, the eternal mummy and creator of the Valley of the Magi, for assistance. A deal is struck, but to the mummy's chagrin, he finds that he's been burgled! Unable to keep his side of the bargain without his mummified cat servant Mau, Hor-Nebwy reluctantly calls upon Salt Mine agent Nalin Buchholz—codename Hobgoblin—to retrieve his missing cat.

Will Hobgoblin, with Alicia Moncrief—codename Clover—at his side, get his hands on the elusive cat of legend before the sepulchral nature of Avalon snuffs out Fulcrum's soul?

Hen Pecked (The Salt Mine Series 8)

The discovery of two mutilated deer hunters in Michigan's Upper Peninsula pings on the Salt Mine's radar. What animal can gut armed men and rip out their eyes before they can fire a single shot?

Leader assigns agent Teresa Martinez—codename Lancer—to investigate. While Native American supernatural creatures are suspected, Martinez learns this case isn't as simple as it first appears after a visit to the Upper Peninsula's Magh Meall.

Joan Liu—codename Aurora—arrives for operational support but the reappearance of a retired Korean shaman reveals this is far from a local problem. Following the trail to Malaysia, home of the newly established Iron Mine, Kanali Patel—codename Prism—provides them increasing insight on the nature of their prey.

Can they thwart those who hunts the hunters before the threat becomes unstoppable?

Brain Drain (The Salt Mine Series 9)

During a televised British quiz show, Asher Leek dies of a brain aneurysm but not before reciting esoteric Sanskrit verse with his dying breath. How the twenty-one-year-old had the atrophied brain of a ninety-year-old is beyond the medical examiner, but Asher's grandmother has her own ideas.

The matriarch of the Yorkshire Leeks reaches across the pond to the Salt Mine for arcane answers, and one doesn't ignore a summons from one of the oldest and wealthiest magical families in England.

Leader sends in her best infiltrator, agent David Wilson—codename Fulcrum—to investigate. Armed with proper spy gear and high-level enchanted objects from the sixth floor, Wilson pries open the moldering Buttercrambe Hall while looking into Asher's death.

When another young student is found dead with similar advanced brain atrophy, Wilson suspects that someone, or something, is targeting magical practitioners. With the aid of Detective Chief Inspector Jones and Detective Constable Tull of the Thames Valley Police Force, Wilson discovers that in England, history is never far away, that the price of greatness is sometimes paid by the innocent, and on the moors of Yorkshire there's nowhere to hide when death comes for you.

Welcome to The Salt Mine! The exciting new urban fantasy series featuring covert agents who keep a lid on the wild esoteric world of the occult.
