When the Symbol Man had suddenly stopped his serial killing, the people of Beaulac, Louisiana breathed a sigh of relief. The thirteen torture deaths with symbols cut into the bodies while alive had left no clues.

But now he is back with the pace stepped up and killings more vicious than ever. New detective, Kara Gillian, is assigned as primary on the case [or is it scapegoat] What her department doesn’t know is she is also a summoner of demons, and the arcane is key to the mystery. Can she solve the case before she becomes a victim?

This is a pleasant cross between police procedural, and urban fantasy. With lots of fast-paced action and a great leading lady, you, the reader will enjoy every moment of the read. I am looking forward to the next volume, Blood of the Demon due out next spring. ~~ Pam Allan
