Stone Cold Killer (Gargoyle Gumshoe Book 1)
By Janene Scott
5 Stars
Janene Scott creates this world where all the things that go bump in the night are not only real, but citizens of the world. That’s right Gentle Readers. Vampires and shifters, dryads and demons. Not to mention Demetria Stone, a Gargoyle with a badge as part of the Brute Squad (lovely nickname for the Mirror Folk Police Department).
Demetria is on the trail of some mysterious murders/disappearances involving humans and Mirrorfolk alike. What she doesn’t know is just how far she will have to go to solve this case. When the perp decides it is time to eliminate the investigating officer, Ms. Stone is in a race for her life.
If you have any interest in a more traditional take on all those monsters (as opposed to sparkly vampires and love sick werewolves) then I recommend you pick this one up. I was surprised how quickly I finished this one as it was a very comfortable read despite its near 300 pages. I guess I was under some witch’s spell and couldn’t put it down.
