When a trail of magical murders follow a stolen statue, Lieutenant Danny Pak and FBI Agent Buddy Redhorn have to get it back, before its dire curse falls on the city. New York Police Lieutenant Danny Pak has a problem. When one of his officers calls him out to an unusual crime scene, Danny realizes that it's terrifyingly similar to something the department thought was dead and buried. Now he has to find a madman before the story hits the papers and the city explodes into chaos. Across town, Agent William "Buddy" Redhorn of the FBI has two problems. He's been assigned a potentially career-ending case with magical ties, and his sorceress boss is out of town. The case involves a stolen statue that belongs to the government of Brunei, but the more he chases the thieves, the more bodies begin to drop. Bodies affected by a strange, unknown magic. Resolving to work together, Danny and Redhorn have to catch a cold-blooded killer, recover a stolen artifact, all while keeping everything out of the press. If they don't, it will be more than their careers that will die when the curse of the Jade Phoenix descends on New York. Important Note: Curse of the Phoenix takes place in the Arcane Casebook universe. If you haven't read any of those, you might want to start there. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

My Thoughts:
I had bought this book back in November of '21 and it has taken me this long to get to it. The good thing about me waiting so long is that the next Arcane Casebook is now out and so I can dive into that soon after this.
I enjoyed this book. I've enjoyed all of the Arcane books that Willis has written. I would say he's hit his skill plateau though. He's a solid B-list author and that's not a bad thing it's just the reality. If you like light urban fantasy detective stuff, Willis has got you covered.
This is the first review for this month where I'm deliberately writing light. Adios.
