The sassy lead Miriam Aster is an ex-cop who is reluctantly called in to consult on cases which involve fey influence, such as a murdered child covered in fairy glitter. Be warned, however, this is no children's fairy tale. I enjoyed this tale from Peter M Ball and the skilful way the paranormal elements were blended with noir ambience. I look forward to reading others in the series. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

For starters, I don't read short spec fiction. I don't really read short fiction, full-stop, because if a story's worth engaging with, I want to engage with it fully and in detail and with all its context and complications. I kept seeing teasing glimpses of all that stuff around the edges of this story, and it frustrated me immensely to turn away from it.
So while there's a lot that I like about this ruthless urban faery fantasy, I just can't take it above three stars. ( )
