I like Victoria Laurie's work. They're light and fun reads with likable characters and a reasonably laid out plot. I love the paranormal aspect in both of her series'. In some ways this was my favorite book out of all that I've read of hers but in other ways it was the most annoying.
I liked:
The mystery. I had been looking forward to solving this particular mystery since it was mentioned in the earlier book and I didn't think it disapointed. I was not overly surprised with the villian was revealed but I didn't know for sure until that moment.
Abby's working with the FBI. It made her involvement in the investigation seem a little more natural.
I didn't like:
Candace at ALL. I've liked her in the past books but in this one I found myself skipping the conversations that involved her. I could understand her annoyance and her not liking the FBI agent but she took in to the point where it was ridiculous and she just came off as stupid and petty. This over the top hostility that turned into To Stupid to Live behavior brought the book down a star for me.
