Smoke eBook

Wyatt Calder is trapped -- in a rundown neighborhood, in a dead-end job, by the endless string of trouble his brother drags to their door -- and it seems he's destined to slowly fade away within the aging walls of Picket House, longing for his neighbor. That is, until his upstairs neighbor Abel Walters dies on the staircase just outside Wyatt's door.   Saalik has spent most of his existence asleep and waiting for the next person to discover his bottle and claim their wishes. And the last four years playing prized possession to Abel Walters and spying on the downstairs neighbors. But he has a plan. And, like every plan worth planning, it has taken patience. But if life as a Jinn has taught Saalik nothing else, it's taught him that.   When a break-in sends Wyatt out his second-story bedroom window and into his dead upstairs neighbor's apartment, he finds more than a place to hide. He discovers a magical solution to all his troubles.   Or does he? Because really, when is life ever that simple?
