Average Urban Fantasy

I don't mean that in a mean way, but just on a rating scale. It isn't terrible, but there is also nothing really exciting about this read. There is a crime. New Girl feels out of place but eventually is the star to help them break the case. The most interesting thing about this book is the tense relationship with her daughter. Not many writers would have the mom be aware that she is the problem in that situation. That was a good deviation from the norm. Everything else is average Urban Fantasy.

This reads like it is part of a larger story. There isn't much explanation about the creatures or the world. You just figure it out as you listen to conversations. I prefer this method rather than listening to definitions and explanations. However, I know others prefer something different. If that bothers you, you may want to read the other stories first.

Love that it's in Atlanta. The narrator does great with supporting cast. I had to get used to her as the main character. The voice didn't quite match the cover picture 😊

Hard Assignment

Kristen is starting a new job with the FBI or is she. She finds herself in a totally different squad. I will be honest when I saw cryptids in the title I was thinking moth man or a skunk ape but these cryptids are from a different dimension. We see Kristen working to get herself caught up to speed with her unit. They have a lot of challenges but Kristen is pulling her own weight. #CMCon26
