URBAN FANTASY REVIEW: Labyrinth - Kat Richardson

BOOK BLURB:

Just back from London, Harper picked up some new skills while she was away. But instead of taking the time to hone them, she'd rather focus on what's important. Like finding the two-bit perp who 'killed' her. She's convinced he's a valuable clue in the puzzle of her past and her missing father, as well as a key to figuring out who's trying to manipulate her powers and why. There's just one problem. Turns out the man who 'killed' her was murdered himself while she was away. Lucky for Harper, she has an airtight alibi, but that doesn't mean the police are going to play nice. With Seattle's recent surge in violence - thanks to the vampires - she's already under suspicion. Which means Harper has to watch her step. Because finding the ghost of her 'killer' - and rescuing her father - will mean entering into the Grey. And with her growing powers pulling her more deeply into that paranormal world, Harper's afraid she may not be able to come back out...


REVIEW:

In this latest offering in Kat’s Greywalker series and one that really brings a lot of events to a head. Its engaging, it brings back past characters and it definitely will keep the reader hopping (and hoping) right to the very end. Whilst it isn’t the end of the series it does close a significant chapter in the principle characters life. Add to the mix emotional angst, some pretty scary truths and topped off with a none stop plot and its definitely a real joy to read. For me, whilst not the authors best, its not far off. This title really will please the reader and give them something a bit new to play with, as well as generating a tale that you won’t put down once you’ve started.
