Fatal Storm

A Cormac and Amelia Story

De: Carrie Vaughn

Narrado por: Neil Hellegers

Cormac and Amelia take a job at a quaint Victorian mountain lodge: Keep an eye on the famous psychic there to judge whether the place is haunted. Simple, right? Three problems: The blizzard that snows everyone in for the weekend, the murdered body that shows up in the morning, and the fact that everyone is sure Cormac did it.

So much for the nice mountain getaway.

Another great story. I really enjoy the Cormac & Amelia stories, my only complaints is they are too short. Looking forward to the next installment, maybe it will be a full length effort.

Love this storyline!

Carrie Vaughn always brings something fresh to sci-fi/fantasy! Such a talented, multi-faceted author!

I love this series

Bought in a haunted house in a blizzard and there is a murder. It has to be one of the persons in the house

A less magical spinoff from Kitty Norville series

Other than psychic gifts and a dash of witchcraft, there’s zero magic here. I much prefer the original Kitty Norville series, which had more magic powers and magic creatures. That series also had a bigger cast. This spinoff is nothing more than a psychic detective series.

Further, this novella feels like a retread of novella 1, Dark Divide, as both feature Cormac and Amelia stuck in the mountains investigating deaths from the past, but then stumbling upon deaths in the present. Both novellas surround Cormac and Amelia with a cast of suspects, Agatha Christie style. Unfortunately, both novellas also fail to spend enough time fleshing out the characters, making them all rather forgettable. In the end, the murder mystery was very ordinary.
