Synopsis

In this new paranormal mystery from the author of Fallible Justice, an investigator looks into multiple murders—of the same man… When private investigator Yannia Wilde returns to the conclave where she grew up—and to the deathbed of her father, the conclave’s Elderman—she is soon drawn back into the Wild Folk way of life, and into a turbulent relationship with Dearon, her betrothed. Back in London, Tim Wedgebury is surprised when police appear on his doorstep with a story about how he was stabbed in the West End. His body disappeared before the paramedics’ eyes. Given that Tim is alive and well, the police chalk the first death up to a prank. But when Tim “dies” a second time, DI Jamie Manning calls Yannia. To assist with the case, she must return to the life she built in Old London—but as Yannia considers where her loyalties lie, will this trip to the city be her last?

I enjoyed the first book in the Wilde Investigations series, but felt that Laura Laakso was just getting into her stride. This book takes us to another level: great story-telling and suspense.
