Delicious Death (Madame Chalamet Ghost Mysteries #2)Delicious Death by Byrd Nash
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Madame Chalamet continues her professional obligations as a ghost talker day and night in this second Ghost Mysteries novel. I love a series that picks up almost directly where the previous left off, and this one does not disappoint. Elinor Chalamet manages to snag an invitation from the King to a dining competition with the upper crust of nobility and brings along a plus one, her friend and confidant, Dr. Charlotte LaRue, coroner. While enjoying fine dining and the occasional conversation with the un-dead, Elinor and her previous acquaintance, the Duke de Archembeau, servant to the King, discover a plot to harm the King.

Byrd Nash has a knack for moving the plot along quickly while intertwining love affairs, tales of rebellion and clashes of nobility- I enjoyed the first book immensely, the second even more and eagerly look forward to reading the third!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Madame Chalamet converses with the dead. She is a professional ghost talker, one who belongs to a society of repute in the ghost talking business, and consults regularly with the gendarme, officers of the law. She does not partake in the dog and pony show by which fraudulent Ghost Talkers swindle the wealthy.
It is by her police consulting that Elinor Chalamet finds herself under house arrest with the Duke de Archembeau while dead man is identified as a relative of the Crown and items of political importance are discovered missing

This novel was absolutely riveting- various storylines interwoven with commonalities turned the pages quickly. I look forward to many more Madame Chalamet Ghost Mysteries!

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The Son of Asmodeus by Barb Jones moved quickly through a complex storyline littered with angels, demons and secret pacts made ages ago. Sully is a loveable main character who had never waivered from what he considered his sacred duty to fight and kill demons- it is the holy task he was assigned from a very early age. Hundreds of years later, Sully is made aware of the deeper meaning of his purpose and embarks on a treacherous journey to learn more about his past, his purpose and his future as a demon hunter.
