It’s just a shame he can’t adult his way out of a paper bag.
Being attuned to the clockwork nature of the universe and able to bend the fundamental laws of reality comes with the bonus that his powers don’t show up under any scans, leaving him in a loophole where he can use his powers without legal restriction…or protection.
On the verge of losing everything, he takes on a simple case of suspected adultery, something to keep the lights on and the creditors at bay.
Little did he suspect his life would become a chaotic whirlwind of false leads, uneasy alliances, mob ties, and a woman who punches with a sedan. Bodies pile up as he struggles to keep things normal for himself and his assistant, Suzette DiMarco.
Phoenix will need his wits if he plans to solve the case and save himself, his livelihood, and everyone around him…because cosmic powers don’t pay the bills.
