Book two of the Realm Walker series Juliana Norris, Realm Walker with the Agency, is an Altered. A fact that she runs up against every time she's forced to work with human police officers, and their species-ist commissioner, on cases they can't solve themselves. Which happens more than they would like to admit. Her gift--the quality that makes her the best Realm Walker in the business, without boast--is the ability to read magical signatures. Whether the gift came from her father, the dark fae god of death, or the mage mother she can't remember, is anyone's guess. And when Altered children start going missing with only wild magical signatures as clues, her heritage is the last thing on her mind. She can't afford such distractions, and she definitely can't afford to worry about the fact that her mate, master vampire Thomas Kendrick, hasn't spoken to her since she saved him from a demon--maybe it's because she had to stab him to do so. Because whoever is kidnapping these children must be very powerful to wield wild magic. Very powerful, and very dangerous indeed. 68,000 words… (altro)

Good series great female characters. I love the way she leads the relationship between her and the male lead. ( )

There are plenty of situations in book 2 that had my heart pounding. I even shed a few tears. I got most of everything I was hoping for in DEATH'S DAUGHTER. I nice pace, great writing, action, danger, suspense, and romance. I didn't figure out the mystery until the end and was pretty shocked that I didn't pick up on it sooner. That is a win in my book!

Watching Julianna come farther out of her shell was very entertaining and I can't wait to see more of Juliana and Thomas in book 3.

A robust police procedural with hints of gothic romance, DEATH’S DAUGHTER deftly blends magic and murder. Though this investigation is easy to follow on it’s own, most of the relationship baggage (both romantic and professional) will be lost on new readers. But if REALM WALKER is as well paced and entertaining as DEATH’S DAUGHTER, starting at book one will be no hardship.

Juliana Norris is a one woman, magical CSI lab, able to sense traces of magic and Altered ancestry with a single, glowing glance. When pushed to her limit, however, as she is by the kidnapping and murder of these children, she has to dole out her strength, balancing magical information against the debilitating headaches that make her worthless as an investigator. Though a minor part of the story, I liked this push pull, as it gives Juliana time to show off her more mundane investigation skills. Her vampire mate is very much present for this investigation as well, but as this is my first Realm Walker book, it took me a little while to catch up on their romance.

Reminiscent of MARK OF THE DEMON and the early Kara Gillian books, DEATH’S DAUGHTER is a perfect blend of paranormal romance and police procedural. And while I’m excited for book 3, in the meantime, I’m going to go back and enjoy what I missed in book 1, REALM WALKER.

Sexual Content: Sex scene, references to rape. ( )
