The author, after a short bio at the beginning of the book, has done many different jobs before becoming a writer whose inspector. So she obviously knows what she is talking;) His style is readable, it is fluid, it is easy to turn the pages. It was fun to discover the magic of Kara, his invocations, everything is really well described, explained with intelligence, without heaviness, so that it is completely swept away in history.
Kara is a lonely woman by choice, even if it weighs him enormously. She has no friends, never receives person home, and because it is in the basement it proceeds to the invocations of demons. After a very difficult childhood and a troubled adolescence, she finds a balance on entering the police and working on his summoner gift. This is an endearing character, you feel compassion on her, and finally, we come especially to identify since this heroine has no super powers or superhuman strength, if n ' is this gift. She weaknesses like us, doubts, moments of depression, and even small beads.
This is its first survey as an inspector of the crim, and she will face several obstacles. Most of his male colleagues to demean, unable to think, but more importantly, it will have to conduct this investigation without revealing his gift, which will be really problematic. She will always apprehensive going for crazy, and it will be him increasingly difficult to continue to separate his cop working with its summoner gift.
Here, no vampires or werewolves as in the novels Bit-bed, just magic and therefore demons. We discover with pleasure and interest in this world that the author presents us, the demons are a species apart, nothing to do with the usual image we may have of these creatures. They have their own laws, and the honor is very important to them.
Side history, I found that there was no downtime, be it the "normal" side with the investigation, the findings of corpses, visits to the morgue for autopsy, or side demons and invocations, descriptions, information on what being a summoner, everything was interesting and consistent.
To conclude, this is a novel I loved, I found fascinating investigation, we do not doubt for one moment the culprit before the end with a heroine that I appreciated, which m ' often affected, but he missed me a little something to be completely seduced and make it a favorite. Can be a love story, who knows, we might have in Volume 2? and that I will read again!
