I love a good urban fantasy, but this one blows the rest out of the water. Verity Price gunslings her way across the page with wit, charm and sass. The colourful cast of side characters are simultaneously supernatural and down to earth (and usually have some funny quirk). The streets of New York will never be the same for me after reading this book, that's for sure!
