I like this book. As a reader of very little urban fantasy, I found this was a nice blend of the "fantasic" and the "forensic" making it a crime novel with a difference. Very easy to read and with a heroine strong and vulnerable enough to make you care constantly about her.
Worth the read! by Peter Aldin
