A beautifully written start to what promises to be an intriguing series. Ms Bargo has a great sense of what her supernatural characters will have to go through in order to prevail in modern-day USA, making it an interesting and informative read, packed full of credible scenarios and behaviours. Her characters are lovingly drawn, to the point where I was disappointed to lose one of them early on, and spent a page or so reeling from the loss before I could fully re-engage with the story.

For a 42-Chapter-length book I felt the story could have packed a bigger punch.
