From acclaimed crime and horror author Dave Zeltserman (Small Crimes) comes something very different. A charming mix of fantasy and thrilling adventure. Emily Mignon recently moved to New York and finds herself frustrated romantically, professionally, and financially. When she comes into possession of a genie’s lamp, she’s tempted to wish for her biggest dream to be fulfilled, but she knows from literature that a genie’s wish can be maliciously twisted. Even the genie—who is quite handsome and looks like a young lawyer dressed in a Brooks Brothers suit and black leather oxfords—admits to her how disastrously some of his previous masters’ wishes turned out. He seems sincere when he promises her that this time will be different and she wants to believe him. Except there’s a warning engraved on the bottom of the lamp. Do not trust him. “Fun and fanciful, The Tenth Wish finds love and magic in this bitter old world.” – Clea Simon
