Rate this book
Alice Koufax desperately wants to break out of the Herald’s Lifestyle section, and when a local football hero proposes to the mayor’s succubus daughter, she thinks it’s finally her ticket to the front page. But when the bride-to-be disappears with rumors of a cursed engagement ring, Alice realizes she’s grabbed a demon by the horns.

On top of all that, she has to deal with her half-elf mother’s interference in her love life, the inscrutable Fae, and the mysterious Stonemen. Can she save the day, reunite the lovers, and most importantly, get her story filed before the deadline?

Welcome to the five ‘burghs, where the Gates in Pittsburgh put power, ruins, magic, and Hell itself just a subway ride away.

Give'm Hell, Dan

This newest genre by noted Sci-Fi guru Dan Thompson, author of the Father Chessman series will have you spell bound from the first as you step in and out of Hell with Alice Koufax, savvy reporter and gorgeous dame.
All she wanted was a chance at a big story, but what she got was so much more! I give this five stars because six isn't an option.

Almost too complex

Melding of humans, demons, elves and assorted others through gates/portals in Pittsburgh, Pa. requires much initial mind bending to absorb this new reality. This is followed by a creative complex plot filled with surprises. Probably deserves a 5 star rating but wore me out...sigh.
