The Second Book in the Kassandra Lyall Preternatural Investigator Series.
Very good. I like the author's voice and humor. The mystery was pretty easy to figure out and the red herring was a bit frustrating but, all in all, a good book.
The author joined us on episode 12 of Cocktail Hour to talk about her debut book.
