The gods, witches and politicians all enjoy the daily tug-of-war for control. In a world of constant scheming and manoeuvring, their peaceful world of ruining each other’s day was truly disrupted. What if it was all just a distraction keeping everyone busy until They came back home again?At the urging of her beloved grandmother, Cassie takes an apparently safe and humdrum job in a government office in Glasgow. However, it turns out the conspiracy theorists are right, and there’s more to the civil service than box-ticking and inscrutable acronyms.

When Cassie is drawn into a plot involving alien invaders, unscrupulous billionaires and the highest levels of government, she also discovers that living in her home city are a group of semi-retired gods, witches and supernatural beings, hidden in plain sight. As Cassie’s true power becomes apparent – she can get people to do what she wants merely by suggesting it to them – she becomes a vital ally against the forces that want to rid the world of gods and humans alike.They have only 10 days to save the human race and themselves.Reader reviews on Goodreads5 Star - A Bold and Brilliant Urban Fantasy That’s Equal Parts Witty, Weird, and Wonderfully Relevant.

It’s Douglas Adams meets Neil Gaiman, with a dash of Ben Aaronovitch.Highly recommended for fans of urban fantasy who want more than just magic and monsters.

This one lingers long after the last page.5 Star - This is one of those books that immediately made me sit up and think, “Why haven’t I read anything like this before?” Discovery is sharp, sly, and packed with original ideas that explode off the page.5 Star - Discovery is one of those rare books that defies easy categorization and that’s exactly what makes it so addictive. It’s urban fantasy, yes, but it’s also political satire, mythological thriller, sci-fi adventure, and something else entirely. The comparison to Good Omens is earned, but I’d also say fans of The City & The City or American Gods will find something to love here.5 – Star - A brilliantly original urban fantasy! Discovery blends government satire, supernatural lore, and alien conspiracies with clever writing and a pitch-perfect sense of humor.

Cassie is a relatable and quietly powerful heroine, thrust into a surreal world where gods, witches, and civil servants collide. Feels like Good Omens met Yes Minister in a Glasgow pub.
