Review: Police Procedural + Supernatural Element = Wonderful Read
Rating: 5 out of 5

Combine the supernatural with a police procedural and you get his engaging novel. I loved Sarah Milton and really got on board with this protagonist and the obstacles she faced. Her mother was murdered, the case remains unsolved, her relationship with her father is estranged at best and she can see ghosts.Sarah Milton is part of the Violet Crimes Division, where her otherworldly powers give her clues she otherwise wouldn't have, and her supernatural side-kick is a useful ally in this first book but we learn nothing about her history in this edition. I assume there's much more to come in future installments. I particularly enjoyed the reading about Meghan, Sarah's best friend, and her antique books.A thriller with a supernatural element which fits. Cameron writes with wit and humour and invites us into the head of his troubled protagonist. I loved this and I look forward to learning more about Sarah, her mother's homicide and Anna in the next one.
