When a mysterious jade throne is delivered to his apartment, graphic designer Leo Figueroa is thrust into a centuries-old family secret: he's the new guardian of a supernatural prison. With only a magical ukulele and his eccentric Great-Uncle Louie's cryptic notes, Leo must evade the ruthless Pelican Club—who want to weaponize the throne's trapped entity—and master ancient chords before they unleash chaos. A humorous urban fantasy about an ordinary man discovering that destiny, like dog food labels, sometimes requires unexpected kerning.
