P. L. Blair's SHADOW PATH is the third in the Portals series. An excellent stand alone, which has little backstory to confuse the reader. A detective/fantasy tale with links to ancient mythology. This series should attract avid fans for its moving plot, acute characterizations, and light touchs of humor.A genre that appeals to all ages. Kathryn (Kat) Morales and Tevis McLeod, an Elf from the Otherside work under the supervision of Lt. Harley of the Corpus Christi police department. The portals were opened to the Otherside several years ago and the creatures from that realm are seen in the streets with little repercussions until an ogre is found murdered. Murdered with the tip of a magic sword left in the wound and part of his blood missing.This strange crime interests the FBI and Arvandus requests a loan of Kat and Tevis to search for an Elven killer who has adopted the sphere of a necromancer.Magic flows both from the words of P.L. Blair to fascinate and Tevis to find and defeat an old love.Good reading any time.Nash Black, author of SANDPRINTS OF DEATH.
