Sgt. Marilyn Jaye of Supernatural Oversight (the investigative unit for all things which bump a bit too much in the night) is having a frustrating day. What should have been a simple case of a murdered ghoul has spun entirely out of control. It’s bad enough that she’s getting distracted from her investigations by her unreasonable attraction to Henry, a young werewolf with a terrible case of PTSD (Post-Turn Stress Disorder), especially since every Tom, Fang, and Hairy (previously known as her sensible friends) tells her she’s destined to be with him. Worse, her distraction allows a second murder victim to turn up, one of the gentlemanly Victorian vampires who lives in Highgate Cemetery. If that isn’t enough, the vicious werewolf who attacked and turned Henry is still on the loose. London’s creatures of the night seem to be in trouble, and it’s her job to protect them.

Marilyn is determined to find the killer and the rogue wolf, but she’ll need a lot of help.

Also alternately helping or annoying her are the other members of the S.O., including her powerful sorcerer boss, the eternal spirit of Romantic poet William Blake, her ex-NYPD partner, a pool (yes, an actual pool) of secretarial sirens, and an imp who’s in love with a cat. Even Henry has to tag along. And they better solve the case soon, because the killer has made it clear that she’s the next target.
A mystery novel that is full of supernatural creatures protecting the humans from the crimes of the creatures that go bump in the night.
The suspects are few, the clues confusing and people are not what they seem. The characters are fun and incredibly strong, and each one is complemented by the others, a true team. I loved Marilyn, as she is strong enough to face her destiny head on, overcoming the obstacles and helping Henry to make sure he stays stable. She hates it when anyone comes to save her as she is more then able to do so, but she does make an exception for Henry.
Henry has gone through so much in just 6 months it would have made a lesser man go insane. His turning was traumatic, but also shows what kind of man he is. He ran toward a screaming woman and tried to save her from the rabid werewolf.
The relationship between Henry and Marilyn is so sweet. They gather strength from each other. They are constantly holding hands and anytime Henry is uncomfortable she is there to soothe him. He needs that comfort when his past comes back to haunt him. Due to the murders, Henry’s family is being guarded in case the attacker goes after them.
The only thing that threw me a bit was the story could be slow moving at times. Also, even though Marilyn is supposed to be smart, she is a bit bubble-headed at times.
The ending is not what I expected and things turn out in a way that I could not have dreamed of. The strength each character shows and the way they work together makes this a worthy novel to read.
