But her ex may not be the biggest demon who has her on his radar.
Brook starts two new jobs, and makes some friends while working at a home for the elderly. Edith is one feisty older resident, who keeps her on her toes! Her second job is at the Avallon House, where she meets the handsome, reclusive man named Anwar Jones. She has seen him in town, and is well aware of how his abrupt interactions make any attempt at conversing a challenge. Still, she feels drawn to him. Brook has much to learn about her new life, her new relationships, and also about her own past.
This is a stunning start to a series that gives a detailed, fully fleshed out main character in Brook, as well as those around her. With real life crime, drama, and hints at otherworldly influences, this story draws you in, and keeps you spellbound until the end. I highly recommend this book, but you may want to have the sequel on hand, as you will not be ready to let go of these characters!
