Sylver and Gold by Michelle Larkin

5.0

4.5* Reid Sylver is a homicide detective with a secret. She can speak to the dead. They help her solve cases. But, because of this, she prefers to work with just her dog, Mug, as companion. Then, she's tasked to train a newly-minted detective, London Gold. Hence, the name of the book, Sylver and Gold.
This is a police procedural with a supernatural twist, but it's not creepy at all. The serial killer Sylver and Gold is confronted with, has an unhealthy fixation on Reid. The crimes are quite gruesome. But, I like how the reluctant partners had to work together to find the culprit. The banter and chemistry is enjoyable. I've always been a sap for characters with a tough exterior but a wounded, soft interior.
I read this book very quickly. It was hard to put it down. I love the writing, the plot, and the characters, Definitely a recommended read.
