Meet Mookie Pearl.
Criminal underworld? He runs it.
Supernatural underworld? He hunts in it.
Nothing stops Mookie when he’s on the job.
But when his daughter takes up arms and opposes him, something’s gotta give…The Blue Blazes – the first in a new urban fantasy series in which lovable thug Mookie Pearl must contend with the criminal underworld, the supernatural underworld, a new drug that makes the invisible visible, and a rebellious teen daughter who opposes him at every turn.
Wow, what a ride! The Blue Blazes is one of those reads that you pick up, intending to read a few pages, and then just can’t put it down. A perfectly wild plot meshes with plenty of tough and quirky characters into something that is just too delicious for words. However, since this is a review after all, I’ll do my best to put it into words. Let the raving commence!
