Fast easy read, but also, I fear, easily forgotten.  I liked the protagonist, didn't like the love triangle and loved the animals (especially the pink wooly mammoth.)More of an adventure than a mystery as there is really no foreshadowing and no hints about the killer and what he's about until Goldie actually comes in contact with the killer.The author seems to rely on the fact that the reader has read other books (in her Cindy Eller series) and really doesn't spend enough time developing the "world", the other characters or the hierarchy they work within. She also didn't use the unmagical/Ordinary/Muggle character effectively. I still kind of wonder why she had him in there.
