Elly Morgan’s a PI on a mission to capture a murderer. But when she encounters him in an alley on her home moon, she discovers he’s more dangerous than she expected—too much even for a foxkin like her to handle.
Detective Blaine Cornell’s tracking the same murderous quarry—and though teaming up with the beautiful ex-cop-turned-PI makes sense, the secrets he must keep from her put them both in a life-and death-struggle to save her kindred.
If they can’t learn to trust each other, they could both lose everything. And set a blood-sucking fiend loose on the innocent inhabitants of the moons of Ghael.
Jayne Fury was raised in New York by a Boy Scout and a flock of canonical penguins. She went to university in Rome where she developed her lifelong love of shoes. When she returned she promptly moved West because she’s left handed and claustrophobic. She has walked across Spain. Twice.
The author lives on her urban farm in the Pacific Northwest with cats, backyard velociraptors, ukuleles, all the yarn, and extremely tolerant husband.
Jayne writes quirky space opera with a little pulp and a little romance. Her paranormal series is the lovechild of Dashiell Hammett and Cowboy Bebop.

She had me at Space Vampires. I mean c'mon Jayne, you've been awfully cruel here. I had planned to read for a half hour or so and then go to sleep. Now it's past 3am on a work night. At least this addictive thing is finished!
Ok, perhaps I'm being a bit unfair to poor Jayne Fury. It's not really a bad thing that she wrote a book with a mishmash of sci fi and paranormal that's so addictively fun, with its really great kick-a** heroine (I do love them), great characters generally, well-drawn universe created for them to play around in and well-written rockin' great action-packed plot.
I'm gonna regret the lack of sleep when the alarm goes off at 6am, but I won't regret reading Fox Trap. It was just that good. If the rest of the series is the same I'm going to have to get my husband to control my kindle access at night time so that I sleep rather than read. In the meantime I'm giving this book five stars, which I practically never do with a first book in a series.
This promises to be an action packed thriller, the start of a new murder mystery. Elinor is foxkin and Blaine is sanguine brotherhood, two souls from totally different ways of life, unofficially thrown together and forced to work together to track and capture a psychotic killer. A fast paced intro to an intriguing fantasy world where the bounty hunter and the cop will find that going it alone is not the way to survive. It is just the beginning.

Okay, this was a lot of fun. It combined vampires, shifters, space and a mystery together into a wonderfully satisfying paranormal/sci-fi stew of goodness. An escaped prisoner sends Blaine to a different moon in pursuit, where he teams up with Ellie to catch him. Faced with a quagmire of lies they are forced to tell one another they struggle to find the truth. This is the start of a series that looks to be fascinating.

There was nothing about this story I should have liked. I do not like stories of shifters. Not my thing. Neither is vampires. I do like PIs and mystery. So there we are. This was a fabulous read and I am glad I did not notice anything that did not appeal to me.

Fox Trap is the first book in the Guardians of Ghael series. This is the first book I have read by this author and I loved it. Lots of action, danger, and romance make this short story a real page-turner. I am looking forward to the next book in this series. I read and reviewed a copy of this book with no obligation.
