Blood Rituals

Boston Preternatural Investigations Unit, Book 1

De: Aoibh Wood

Narrado por: Abby Craden

Boston Homicide Detective Caitlin Reagan walks a razor's edge, propping up her life on emotional constructs designed to help her manage grueling PTSD. She keeps her mother, boyfriend, and work separated and controlled, all in service to one horrible, tragic act she committed amid the Iraq war.

But when the murder of a charity worker brings her face to face with the beautiful and charismatic philanthropist, Marcella Carson. Cait is unable to deny the attraction and finds everything she thought she knew about her world, her life, and her very identity called into question as Marcella draws Cait into her dark world.

Sliding inexorably into an unsuspected Boston subculture, where creatures of myth and nightmare struggle to survive in a world of fading magic and proliferating public surveillance, Cait must face down her inner demons, rediscover her lost past, and catch an undead serial killer.

In her first novel, Aoibh Wood explores a dark urban fantasy world through the eyes of a woman struggling to come to terms with Post Traumatic Stress, personal trust issues, and the belated realization that she is a lesbian. On the way, we meet a colorful cast of characters, from a Latino cowboy cop with a love of country music to a ruthless vampire assassin and a retired serpent goddess with a passion for science.

This book is intended for adult listeners. It contains scenes of an intimate sexual nature, as well as themes and depictions of violence, sexual assault, and death.

I feel unfulfilled

I need the other book. Cause I feel so unsatisfied right now. All these questions. Honestly im angry at the audacity of my emotions being played with and I love it. I want more and I’m extremely unhappy at the turn of events but curious to see where it goes cause QUESTIONS WTF. Ps. Love the book and of course my hope is that Abby keeps narrating the rest. Thank you to Aoibh Woods for creating such an atrocious yet beautiful characters. It truly captures the human essence no matter in what world or life it happens,

Did not think that was where it was going

I wasn’t sure I was going to like it at first, didn’t know where it was going. But ended up loving it, love supernatural magical books.

Unexpected

Give it a go. World building. Unexpected ending. Was entertaining and hard to stop listening to it.

Wow so many twists and turns

So many times I thought I understood where the book was going and then there’d be some pivot out of nowhere. Sometimes it just changed the plot, sometimes the entire type of book. It was good. Looking forward to the second book but unfortunately I have a problem with series where once I forget the first book, it’s hard for me to get myself to pick back up the second!

I've found My new favorite author!

Loved it! Can't wait for more, and who doesn't love listening to Abby Craden tell a story. Yum! ;)

A complex character neither heroine or anyi-heroine

Captivating story that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Complex world that is revealed layer by layer
