I really enjoyed this story. I will admit it took a little bit for me to really get into it, but once I did I was hooked and the story breezed by. The writing was good, and I loved the history being tied into the modern day mystery. I also really liked the characters, I feel like I’ve been on a run of stories with unlikeable characters, but this book broke that streak. Even characters that seemed capable of bad like Morgana also carried a lot of redeemable qualities and interest. I especially loved Jaq and her fierce desire for justice. The city of Savannah has a lot of secrets, but some more are discovered when a man is burnt alive in a building and the rich man who owned that building is charged with the murder. Every player has their own reason for getting involved. Morgana and the detective agency she owns (inherited, she is not a detective) needs the money. Jaq is determined for justice for the murdered as he was her friend and their friend Stony is missing and Jaq is also determined to find her. But there are mysterious players working against them and it is a race against time.
