Point of Sighs by
Melissa ScottMy rating:
4 of 5 starsSatisfying indeed, as are all the others in this fine series of Astreiant and the pointsman, Nico Rathe, and his leman (spouse), Philip Eslingen of the City Guard. A hungry river spirit , the Riverdeme, has unbound and she wants blood. "Now the river seethes with vicious dogfish, mauled corpses are pulled from the water and Eslingen--peculiarly at risk from any watery threat--and Rathe must uncover the person who seeks to unleash [this] ancient evil" (back cover). A murder, another, rich in details of place and culture, and character--Scott has done it again.
Fans take note. Recommended indeed.
