Settling Dust

by Jacklyn Hennion

Detective Ava Maxwell is about to make the biggest bust of her career with the Oklahoma Arcane Police Department.

She has a promising suspect on his way to custody and a sample of the dangerous drug circulating the Oklahoma City metro. All she needs now is the name and location of the sorcerer responsible for the manufacture and distribution of the drug.

But when her suspect ends up dead only moments after his arrest, Maxwell’s case gets turned upside down.

With only a mysterious arcane symbol and the help of a few strange allies, Maxwell must stop a killer and find the sorcerer running the biggest drug game in town.

Her job, and perhaps her life, are on the line.

Reviews

(FYI I tend to only review one book per series, unless I want to change my scoring by 0.50 or more of a star. -- I tend not to read reviews until after I read a book, so I go in with an open mind.)

3.5*

Accidentally deleted from 'all' shelves when I meant to remove from just one! -- Thankfully I had the original shelf open in another window, and it was just one page that I was able to grab a screenshot of, so I can re-add all 17 books.
I don't store reviews, so I have clue what else I added beyond the star rating, sorry! :(

I'll try to recall to add my thoughts, again, when I do a re-read.

First time read the author's work?: Yes

Will you be reading more?: Yes

Would you recommend?: Yes


------------
How I rate Stars: 5* = I loved (must read all I can find by the author)
4* = I really enjoyed (got to read all the series and try other books by the author).
3* = I enjoyed (I will continue to read the series)
or
3* = Good book just not my thing (I realised I don't like the genre or picked up a kids book to review in error.)

All of the above scores means I would recommend them!
-
2* = it was okay (I might give the next book in the series a try, to see if that was better IMHO.)
1* = Disliked

Note: adding these basic 'reviews' after finding out that some people see the stars differently than I do - hoping this clarifies how I feel about the book. :-)

I read it in a day. Fun read. Kept me drawn in. Urban Arcane Detective. Okc and Norman backdrop. The short story in the back took place partly in the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge brought forth memories of quest.
