    About this ebook

    An Urban Fantasy short story by Dixon James.

    Zoe is a young sorcerer, gifted and powerful. Give Zoe a porcelain plate and she can summon the ghosts of diner parties long gone. Long dead relatives will drink and smoke once more.

    Until the plate explodes, that is. Zoe hasn’t had any training.

    Margaret is an older practitioner trying to help the new, powerful sorcerer. Just trying to bring her into the sorcery community and teach her how to control all that power, but you can only push someone so far.

    When Zoe is nudged too hard, her anger puts everyone at risk.

    Dixon James

    Dixon James lives in Perth, Western Australia, where he wears a sack over his head due to sun sensitivity. He only takes it off for author photos and his friends are beginning to suspect that he is a vampire. He has worked as a gardener, video producer, actor, woodcutter and radio announcer. For the last seven years has been constructing his own house due to a deep subconscious desire to bang his head on things. He has a brown belt in Ninjukai Taijutsu and a distrust of misplaced apostrophes. Dixon James writes in many genres and has work available at all good ebook stores.
