With the unlikely event
of the Big Uneasy our world was thrown into a post-apocalyptic paranormal
scenario the likes of which has never been seen before. All things fantastical
or paranormal are now pretty much everyday life. The problem with such a big
change happening so quickly, the laws haven’t had a chance to catch up yet.
Enter the office of Chambeaux & Deyer Investigations.
Dan Chambeaux was a live
PI. Now he’s a dead one. After his murder he came back as a zombie. Their secretary
Sheyenne is a ghost (she was murdered first), and Robin is their human
attorney. Together they make a great team if not a lot of money. With a habit
of taking Unnatural cases pro bono they really need to solve their paying
cases. So, they get to work and in-between, Dan tries to solve his and Sheyenne’s
murders.
Well, this is quite the
fix to be in. Who knew that a highly unlikely series of events could activate a
spell that could turn everything upside down? Well, not literally upside down.
Man, they don’t need that on top of everything else. The world is intriguing
and I like the characters. The cases the trio are working on are varied and
interesting. And then there’s Sheyenne’s and Dan’s murders to solve. Lots going
on here, but not too much to overwhelm. The writing is decent, but there’s
something a tad off about the whole book and I can’t put my finger on what is
bugging me. In any case, it’s still a good read.
This sounds like a really good and I am happy that you enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteThe world and characters are sure interesting. I'm looking forward to book 2.
