Summary

Reports to write, forms to fill, coffee to drink, leads to run down.

Gus’s life was a tedium and boredom he’d grown comfortable with. One that he sought out after he’d come back from his tour of duty.

A detective in the paranormal investigations department. A job he could work day in and day out in relative peace. One cold and forgotten cup of coffee at a time.

It was an environment that made some sense to him. At least in comparison to civilian life where almost nothing did. On top of that, it gave him a chance to hide what he was from the rest of the world.

An apex predator that made the entirety of the paranormal world fear him. His very species was often killed as soon as they were found out.

By government and citizen alike.

He’s a Boogieman.

A name that made humans laugh, and vampires curse. It was a strange life to be sure.

Now though, Gus’s stable non-life is about to be kicked over. Whether he likes it or not, he’s about to be handed a case that’s going to mess up his already screwed up life.

This book is beautifully written. It slowly teases you with little bits of back story, unveiling a little bit more of what drives each character through memory flash backs.
From the start, Gus and Vanessa and her introduction to the para world is engrossing. Add in a little bit of crazy from the contractor Melody, and the world is more than it seems to be.
Good and evil from a human perspective is not as clear cut as it should be. Living monsters and nightmares undertake the fight for good, to prevent the human and para world from mixing, no one wants another inquisition after all.
At the heart of it, love and friendship, brotherhood, and a heavy dose of denial, lust, and squaddie humour lead the way.
I laughed out loud, and was engrossed in a world where the boogie man, and a whole host of paranormal species usually seen as the monster can be the hero.

I would suggest that if you’re going to read / listen to these books that you google all books by this author and read them in order. There is so much that makes sense, only if you’ve read previous books. Characters that pop in and out are the stars (or at least feature more prevalently) of previous books. You’ll be fine without reading them as long as you’ve read the previous book in this series.

The excellent narration by Andrea Parsneau gives life and depth to the characters. I will pretty much listen to anything she narrates now, as I’ve never heard her do a bad book.

Meet Gus, you’ll love him.
