Voodoo Dues
All
is fair in black magic and revenge.
Figg
is a hot-headed girl with a criminal past and a big heart. Dr. Cairn is an
attractive anthropologist who is running away from a past that is closing in on
him fast. Rene, the town witch, life is in danger from past wrongdoings. Carl,
a cross dressing psychic, is being hunted by his master who wants to possess
his abilities. What happens when these characters lives cross? Well; zombies, magic,
werewolves, vampires and cults, of course.
The
story starts with a sneaky suspicion of a budding sexual tension between Figg
and Dr. Cairn. Figg being the aggressor and Dr. Cairn afraid of being broken
hearted, again. However, Figg becomes his caretaker, and he becomes her
protector. Together they battle death, omens, and witchcraft. Soon the two are
hired unknowingly to protect Rene from a past acquaintance that is willing to
raise the dead to kill her. And if that isn't a large enough job, they also
have to keep Carl who travels with a gay ghost, safe from a master who will
kill both Figg and Dr. Cairn to get to him. Whew!
This book
started right away and took me on a wild roller coaster. The romance between
the two love interests made me turn page after page with excitement. The twist
and turns with adventure and danger keeps you interested in what's next. This
book was a nice opener for the series of "Voodoo" books from Stephany
Simmons. If you like all things mystical with a twist of love, fate, and
excitement then choose this book, and beware.
