Helpful Score: 1
Hard-headed PI, Harper Blaine wasn't the type to believe in ghosts. It wasn't until an attack left her dead for two minutes that she started seeing the mist-like fog with the unidentifiable shapes inside. With the help of a theoretical excentric and his witch wife, Harper tries to fit her world back together.
I found the heroine to be a little flat and I don't think I ever got to the point where I felt much like empathizing with her situation. Several elements of the story were rather distracting, too. For instance, the Danzingers, the couple that attempts to help Harper. It seemed like I should already know them and their backstory, like they were characters borrowed from another book. And the vampires? Twilight fans, get ready for this: the head vampire's name is Edward. Although he looks more like a cruel Pierce Brosnan than a sparkling schoolboy. His main enemy? A petite vampire named Alice. Yeah. That's interesting.
While I thought Ms. RIchardson's short story in "Mean Streets" was more interesting, this book was still worth the read. I'd probably give this book less stars but rounded it up, as I intended to read the next one in the series.
