Daisy Johansen is Hel's representative, Hel of Norse Mythology, not the underworld. She is also a file clerk for the local police department so she is available to handle any weirdness that comes up. Daisy is also half-demon, which makes her life harder and gives her a tail... no really. Daisy ends up partnering up with Cody, a werewolf, who she has crushed on since high school, to investigate the seemingly accidental death of a local teen. The small town is famous for supernatural sightings so it is important for the tourist trade that the case is closed quickly, but something is not right and Daisy and Cody have to dig deep. 

This book has terrific world building and wonderful side characters. I'm writing an angels and demons trilogy so I'll read pretty much any urban fantasy book with either species. This is one that would make me break my vow to not buy any new books! I desperately want to read more. It will be marked in my spreadsheet as a must read more! 5 stars!
