I spent the entire time I was reading this book wanting to slap everyone in it. The love interest refuses to tell anyone what is going on, the humans all let him get away with it, and the cat-thing sidekick is just annoying. It ended up feeling like the main characters were paying more attention to their unresolved sexual tension than the imminent catastrophe, the nature of which was not explained until halfway through the final encounter with the bad guys. I probably would not have finished this book if I hadn't been stuck waiting for car repairs with nothing else to read.

not my usual "cup of tea"... it was Scary!
and very Heterosexual romantically inclined.
BUT, it mostly took place at Winchester Mystery House (i love Winchester Mystery House) i've even taken the halloween tour! it was a good story, and i liked most of the people a
lot! and having one of the main characters, be a pseudo cat
was fun. all in all, i enjoyed this book a lot more than i thought i would.
