Mark Del Franco: LAURA BLACKSTONE

Series: LAURA BLACKSTONE
Plot Type: UF
Ratings: V4, S2-3, H3 
Publisher and Titles: Ace
       Skin Deep (2009)
       Face Off (2010)


     Laura Blackstone is an undercover agent with multiple identities (e.g., varying names, jobs, facial features, hair and eye color, mannerisms). She is a Druid who can “glamour” herself to take on any appearance.


     Two of her personas take up most of her time. In her Laura Blackstone persona, she is a public-relations director for the Fey Guild, which combats magic-based criminal activity and acts as a buffer between humans and fey (supernaturals). In her Mariel Tate persona, she is a secret agent for the International Global Security Agency (InterSec).


     In Skin Deep, Laura and two of her personae must track down a rogue fairy who has killed a policeman and plans to assassinate government officials. Her love interest is Jonathan (Jono) Sinclair, a half-fey Washington, D.C., swat team member. In Face Off, she gets involved in a struggle involving both anti-fey humans and internal fey power struggles that cause conflicts within InterSec.
