Great story line unexpected twists and turns.
This book was like CSI, except the main character isn’t just city employee she has some magical abilities. There is a who done it mystery she works to solve. I thought the premise of this story was original so that in itself is worth a star. However it did need some editing. I would say if I was giving it a grade, it got a solid B.
Definitely interesting rrad
very engaging!
This story is fun and entertaining. It is a quick easy read.
4*
Good read.
Writing and copy editing are good.
I’m now interested in reading more in this series.
There are some faults.
The ease at which people can ‘change identities’ simply doesn’t work in today’s computerized society.
A brief in and out with fake IDs? Sure. But the protagonist has changed identity and so has the villain, whom I won’t name, spoilers, after all.
The boss battle at the end was disappointing. It’s almost like she forgot she had the ‘ultimate weapon’ until it was too late.
The interrogation of the Big Baddie was also … unsatisfying, shall we say, especially since the information gained was about what you’d expect.
The whole ‘Ainslie’ feud/not feud also wanted more work.

Flawed? Sure. But it’s a pretty good read, and better than a lot of indie stuff I’ve seen lately.
A good solid 4*, but nothing more.
I really enjoyed this book. The dialog and the way the author has his character enneract is funny, entertaining, informative and very snarky. Like watching an old Drag Net episode from the 50’s this has book has a gumshoe novel quality to it which makes it such a fun read. The main character Kasey, a forensic pathologist, has a snarky attitude, a tough girl personality which works well with her boss, detective Bishop. She and her boss are out to catch a serial killer and stop him before he kills again. Only problem is she cant use magic and her boss and other co-workers don’t know she has magical abilities. She has been warned by ADI, the council that oversees and monitors the use of magic around normal people, that they would take drastic measures against her and possible lock her away if she used it again. But they also hired her to find and terminate, if need be, the serial killer. What a bind!!! The concept is great and I love solving mysteries. It’s a fast pace book and I was able to read it in a day. If you enjoy old style detective books, snarky women, a funny coroner and a straight laced Chief of Police, you’ll love this gumshoe mystery novel.
Wonderful and magical. This is about a girl, Kasey, who never finished magical school although at certain points she wishes she had. Someone is after her and wants her dead, but she doesn’t know why. Because of her rare magical talent, she had to change her identity thinking no one would discover who she really was. She proves to be a kick ass heroine, one of the traits I enjoyed about this book. But she only managed to catch one of the soldiers of a much larger organization. Who the leader is is not revealed yet and there is the cliffhanger. My interest is definitely peaked and would love to find out more about what Kasey is up against and how she handles it.
Death, Magic, and Normals don’t mix… No matter what!
Death comes for us all and he’s dying to meet you. It’s the one rendezvous you’d rather be late for. Fortunately, Kasey is rarely on time. A Medical Examiner for the city of New York, Kasey has a rare gift: prescience. Born a witch, she considered her gift nothing more than affliction that forced her to see visions of those she touched. But her new job changed all that. Embracing her curse, Kasey uses her visions to solve murders in the city that never sleeps. But when the bodies on the slab start to look disturbingly more and more like Kasey, she’s left in a precarious situation: find out what these people have in common…or be the next to turn up dead.
What did I like? Being the first book in a new series is sometimes a crap shoot but if you know the author and have read his/her other works it can be an adventure. That’s the case here and I am sure glad that I made the trip. I fell in love with Kasey and what a story! This is going to be an exciting adventure and I am looking forward to more of this girl!
@ddeegott What will you like? Humor, mystery, intrigue, action-packed, and fantasy all in one great book. The characters are humorous, and yet intense. The work is exciting yet so very important. The storyline is captivating and full of exciting mystery with tons of twists and turns. Lots of descriptions keep you right in the mix of things but not overwhelming. Adventures abound in our future as Kasey and her group will keep us book bound. Join me in this new series by S.C. Stokes. I received this from the author as an ARC (Advanced Readers Copy) for an honest review with no other compensation.
I hate when main characters are actively stupid. In this one, the main character – who is an employee/contractor of the NYPD – broke into a suspect’s apartment illegally, got caught, got reprimanded, and then promptly broke into another suspect’s home. As in “the next night” promptly. Which caused me to promptly delete the book from my Kindle.
