A world of myth and legend. A world of Elves and Orcs. But, what's more odd than that. It seems they've been here the entire time, living among us.Dust off your blazer and grab a cocktail. The Pandora Gambit is going to take you for a ride! --- Weighing his options, Crum lifted the iron device and carried it toward Ray, hoping it would continue to hold against the rapid fire of machine guns.Digging his way free of the drums, Ray peeked over the pile of metal. A barrage of bullets riddled the area, but it was clear they didn't know exactly where he was. Seeing Crum, cowering behind what appeared to be a makeshift shield, Ray drew his gun and took aim at the SUV. In an attempt to calm himself, he exhaled and squeezed the trigger. His bullet hit the post between the front and back seats. He was still shaken. His body trembled. He needed to breathe. Only then would he be able to hit his target.Hearing the machine guns slow, Crum knew at least one of them was reloading. This was his chance. Setting the bottom edge of his wall in the dirt, he drew his Desert Eagle. Leaning around the barrier, Crum popped off four shots. He ducked back, just as another volley riddled his position. Something caught his eye as he returned to cover. The grenade Ray had been given was lying in the dirt. This one of a kind urban fantasy is unlike any you've read before. You won't find vampires and werewolves in their ever typical battle of the ages troupe like you'd usually see in this type of story. Instead, you'll find fast cars, pretty women, high society, and good music, rolled into an enjoyable tale that seamlessly blends a fast-paced buddy cop duo with the thrill of epic modern fantasy. If you enjoyed The Pandora Gambit you'll love the second installment in the Miami Knights series, The 95th District!

There was no telling how many times it hit but he both heard and saw it shoot into the sky behind him. Glaring his irritation at the criminal, he clenched the steering wheel, feeling his knuckles pop. They were dead set on messing up his ride.Arcing wide, Ray mashed the gas and pulled up beside the truck. Unfortunately there wasn't enough room to stay there long. The motorcycle could narrowly be seen in the distance, nearing the top of the I-95 ramp. There was no way they were going to catch it. Why they'd even bothered was a complete mystery.The truck darted over, nearly on top of him. Ray slammed on the brakes, back into the danger zone. Another green cylinder hit the road right in front of him. Spinning the steering wheel, he slid sideways and shot into the far left lane. Another spin the other way sent him sliding around, the front of his car facing the left side of the truck. He corrected just as the second bottle went off. It shot like a torpedo, flying inches over his hood and passed the truck with ease. An explosion of concrete dust showered them and an overhead sign began to fall. This story was written to be enjoyed as a standalone, but if you'd like to experience the tale of how Ray and Crum met, be sure to check out book 1 in the Miami Knights series, The Pandora Gambit!
