'I'm Fetch Phillips, just like it says on the window. There are a few things you should know before you hire me:
1. Sobriety costs extra.
2. My services are confidential - the cops can never make me talk.
3. I don't work for humans.
'It's nothing personal - I'm human myself. But after what happened, Humans don't need my help. Not like every other creature who had the magic ripped out of them when the Coda came...
'I just want one real case. One chance to do something good.
'Because it's my fault the magic is never coming back.'

'Like his fellow citizens in Sunder City, Fetch Philips has nothing left - no hope, no money, no magic left in the world after the war that took it all away. He has nothing left to believe in.
'Which is why Fetch is surprised when people begin to believe in, well, in him.
Rumour has it that Fetch Philips is the man with the secret to bringing the magic back. So when a man is murdered in a way that can only be explained as magical, Fetch is brought in on the case. A case which just might unearth things best left buried.' (Publication summary)
'AN ANGEL FALLS IN SUNDER CITY...
'In a city that lost its magic, an angel falls in a downtown street. His wings are feathered, whole - undeniably magical - the man clearly flew, for all that he plummeted to his downfall moments after.
'The mystery will set Fetch - in his quest to bring magic back to his beloved city - on a journey involving necromancers, genies and shadowy secret societies. Fetch will search Sunder's wildest forests and dingiest dive bars for the answer, and when he finds it, nothing will ever be the same again.'(Publication summary)
