She suddenly finds herself in a world filled with enchanting and dangerous creatures. A strong debut novel by Nicole Peeler, this book should appeal to Sookie Stackhouse fans, and more volumes to follow within the next year.

Picture a fantasy noir setting where magic surges and ebbs and leaves mercenary and investigator Kate Daniels tangling with messy paranormal problems. The taut storyline and well crafted characters made me quickly reach for the next book in the series. Fans of Patricia Briggs and Jim Butcher will enjoy.
