Journal Entry 1 by elsi from Sanger, Texas USA on Saturday, July 25, 2009

Second in the Occult Special Investigator series.

From the back cover:

In our line of work, there were demons and necromancers, and then there were...other things. Older things without names that you didn't ever want to meet. I swallowed a lump in my throat, knowing I was in the presence of evil...

As an Occult Special Investigator, Tess Corday has seen her fair share of disturbing crime scenes—but nothing has ever shocked her as much as the ritualistic murder of a drugged-out runaway kid, who she soon learns was not the first such victim.

All the dead teens had traces of the dangerous magical drug called Hex in their bodies. All were the children of powerful mage families. All were killed with the sacred tools of mages. It addes up to the chilling possibility that the OSI is dealing with a serial killer, one who has incredible inhuman powers.

To stop the slaughter, Tess and her partner, Derrick, will go anywhere and do anything—including seeking help from the necromancer Lucian Agrado, whom Tess is under orders to avoid. But as the deaths continue, Tess becomes convinced that the identity of the killer is locked inside her own head. And the question is, how many rules is she willing to break to get to the truth?

Journal Entry 3 by CheriePie from Campbell, California USA on Tuesday, May 11, 2010

Sorry for taking so long to journal this. It got put in the pile of books that I received while on the road and getting settled and I thought I'd marked it received out here and on the Zoho database. Obviously, I'm still trying to get caught up but I'm making a few inroads here and there. :)
