About this listen

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.

My favourite narrator is Abby Craden - so found this book from doing a search on Abby Craden. To be honest I thought I wouldn’t finish it, but was in it from the get go! Really liked the story, full os twists, turns and surprises, though it got a bit mad as the story continued. I never thought that Fantasy would appeal to me, but I am already looking forward to the second book of this series. However ONLY if Abby Craden narrates it.

My first foray into this genre

This wasn’t the type of story I normally go for but I was gripped after the first two chapters.
Exciting and fast paced I thoroughly enjoyed all the way through.

Wouldn’t normally be my thing

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Not your predictable LGBT+ romance. I had to listen from start to finish in one go. I will be heading back for a second go around as I missed so much detail. Jammed full of weaving storylines, relatable and engaging characters. A total treat for this lesbian horror fan. Thank you 😊

Fabulous mix of horror romance and crime

the storyline is fantastic, definitely not predictable. Characters are so interesting some with a smidge of humour. Narration was absolutely perfect, Being Irish and living in the UK I loved the different accents. Will def read the next book in the series
