Once, when I picked up a book from the local library, the librarian asked to tell her what I thought about the book when I would bring it back. Well, why not write a few lines about all the books I read so everybody could see what I thought about it? I'm often also happy to have friends recommend a certain book or tell me this and that is not really worth reading. I won't comment about the tons of books I have read so far, but about books I read from now on.

Emma Bellamy is only one two-week stint away from making full London Metropolitan Police Detective. Piece of cake. She did not, however, even dream about being dumped at Supernatural Squad for her last assignment. Well, Emma is a fighter and as bad as Supe Squad's reputation is, she tries to make the best of it and still learn something useful. Not much trying, though, since at the blink of an eye she is dredged into a hell of a case up to her nose. There definitely is a lot to learn about the ways of vampires, werewolves and other species.
This is the first book in Helen Harper's Firebrand series. It nicely sets the stage for further adventures of Emma Bellamy and kind of explains how she comes to work as detective for Supernatural Squad. It's entertaining, well written, with a straight story and does not easily let the reader guess who the bad guys are. Definitely good enough a book so I ordered the seconds book in the series straight away.
