( )Ī fantasy police procedural, set in a large city with many non- and demi-human races.

Luckily the real culprit meekly admits defeat and submits to being handcuffed.Īs yet I'm not sure if I want to continue the series if so, getting the second volume won't be a priority. The ending is rushed, without a convincing explanation how the culprit carried out the murder, and the arrest happens at the hunch of Detective Daggers who finally sees light at the end of the tunnel, after accusing several suspects of the deed (ever heard of evidence?). I agree with one reviewer that the book isn't half as funny as it thinks it is fewer wise-cracking jokes would certainly have been more. Luckily he's found his match in Shay Steele, his new partner, but even she appears to be warming to him by the end of the book. The murder of a con man at the centre of the novel is done well enough it's just a shame that the character of Jake Daggers, who acts as the narrator, is such an idiot: unapologetically sexist, he views all women in terms of physical attributes and attractiveness. While the initial premise sounded intriguing, and the urban fantasy setting certainly has potential, the execution leaves something to be desired. Both need to overcome preconceptions in order to solve a puzzling murder. After the sudden retirement of his partner, Detective Jake Daggers is teamed up with a rookie: not only is she a woman, but also a half-elf, and a proclaimed clairvoyant.
