We’re very happy to share with you today the artwork for Ari Marmell‘s next novel, HOT LEAD, COLD IRON. The book is the first in a new, historical urban fantasy series featuring Chicago private investigator Mick Oberon, and is to be published by Titan Books in May 2014. A second novel is also under contract with Titan Books.

Chicago, 1932. Mick Oberon may look like just another private detective, but beneath the fedora and the overcoat, he’s got pointy ears and he’s packing a wand. Oberon’s used to solving supernatural crimes, but the latest one’s extra weird. He’ll have to wade through Fae politics and mob power struggles to find a kidnapper — and of course it’s the last person he expected.
