Absolutely fantastic. Even better than the Vintner's Luck. Oh how I hope there's another.

A great read as with the others of this series. I probably would've read it all last night had I not had an early start today. The only slightly unbelievable thing was Anya's dealing with the squatters.
Still, all in all bloody brilliant. Bring on number 5!

Fascinating if brutal

This has been a disturbing read at times but very powerful. Originally I intended 5 stars but dropped one due to the slightly disjointed narrative in places and the feeling that it ended too soon. However the descriptive forces within the story have me wanting to learn more about the Wendat.

A very entertaining little book. The far-fetched issue isn't that Elvis may have faked his own death but that he became a pretty decent PI.

A nice quick story that I read whilst donating blood. No murder but all the usual characters

Interesting little tale. Can imagine it potentially being expanded or continued.
New writer to watch methinks

Angels, Demons and stilettos

Damn. Now I'm going to have to buy the next one.
Although the bond-Guardian Angel stuff is a little trying, I wasn't expecting the twist towards the end.

Unexpected twist

Enough truth and historical fact but still a rollicking good story.
Have the second book to read but as always with such books, am first going to do some research.
