I bought the paperback version of this book at an author showcase where Kirsten Weiss was one of the featured authors. I've read the first two in the series and enjoyed them thoroughly.  The Shamanic Detective knocks it out of the ballpark for me.  Riga Hayworth is an extremely likable protagonist, with a sense of humor, flaws and a great internal narrative.  The supporting cast of characters is diverse, believable and and yes, I even include Riga's familiar (a gargoyle named Brigette)in this description. The author blends magic and the mundane together seamlessly, and her ability to weave a good mystery and keep me guessing just keeps getting better with each book. If you enjoy a bit of paranormal with your mysteries, you will love this book and the entire series.
