Fantasia & scifi
Not all magicians go to schools of magic.
Adam Binder has the Sight. It’s a power that runs in his bloodline: the ability to see beyond this world and into another, a realm of magic populated by elves, gnomes, and spirits of every kind. But for much of Adam’s life, that power has been a curse, hindering friendships, worrying his backwoods family, and fueling his abusive father’s rage.
Years after his brother, Bobby, had him committed to a psych ward, Adam is ready to come to grips with who he is, to live his life on his terms, to find love, and maybe even use his magic to do some good. Hoping to track down his missing father, Adam follows a trail of cursed artifacts to Denver, only to discover that an ancient and horrifying spirit has taken possession of Bobby’s wife.
It isn’t long before Adam becomes the spirit’s next target. To survive the confrontation, save his sister-in-law, and learn the truth about his father, Adam will have to risk bargaining with very dangerous beings … including his first love.

First and foremost: if you are looking for a fulfilling romance angle in this, just drop any hopes at the door. The main pair had talked once or twice on the whole but the readers are repeatedly told there's "undeniable" attraction and connection already cemented (implied not only magical). The "romance" was so boldly underdeveloped it had me actually raising eyebrows. However, the investigation and combing through the family history and trauma (not my favourite subject, but needs must), along with the mystery and action and magical world-building, made this an enjoyable enough listen. The narration was good and engaging.
