Bonnie Torres gets recruited for PUPI - Private Unaffiliated Paranormal Investigations - an FBI-type group that investigates magical crimes. PUPI is started by Ian Stosser and Ben Venec. Sharon, Pietr, Nick, Nifty and Bonnie are all recruited the same day and extensively trained in magical investigation skills. The training gets boring at times but there is enough push and pull between the crew to provide some tension and comic relief. The real fun starts when they actually get a client and investigate the apparent suicide of two old people.

I enjoyed the story and was very interested in who the murderer was and why but the journey to this ending got on my nerves at times. I think part of the problem is that this is a spin-off from the Retrievers series and the author left out some crucial details, I guess assuming the reader had read the previous books too. I don't think the first series is an imperative read but I bet it would have made this one more understandable.
