Publisher's summary
He’s up to his eyeballs in hot water, and he thinks he’s taking a bubble bath!
A routine case of industrial espionage pitches hardboiled PI Alexander Southerland headlong into a maelstrom of shadowy political intrigue and deadly supernatural mayhem - not to mention some malevolent owls and the mysterious "boy who talks backwards"! After his exposure of a white-collar thief has harrowing consequences, a guilt-ridden and disconsolate Southerland roams the mean streets and dark alleys of Yerba City seeking to uncover a secret so stunning - so staggering - that just knowing it could unravel the bonds that keep the social order from dissolving into chaos!

Story
A troll in a pinstriped suit walks into a bar. He's looking for Alex Southerland, private investigator and summoner of elementals. A gorgeous dame is going to come to Southerland with a case, and the troll tells him that he is going to turn the case down - or else! But Southerland doesn't respond well to threats. Besides, he needs the dough! Framed for a murder he didn't commit, Southerland weaves his way from seedy neighborhoods to the dazzling lights of downtown - and from one savage beating to the next - to clear his name and uncover a shocking secret.

Story
When a magical plague is released in a Depression-era New York soup kitchen, private detective Alex Lockerby finds himself in a desperate hunt to catch a madman before he can strike again. His investigations lead Alex to a famous thief, a daring heist, and the search for a mythic book of ancient magic, but none of that brings him any closer to finding the man responsible for the massacre. With the police and New York’s Council of Sorcerers desperate to find the culprit, Alex becomes a suspect himself, thanks to his ties to the priest who ran the soup kitchen.

A weekly newspaper dedicated to the weird and the wonderful (but mostly the weird), The Stranger Times is the go-to publication for the unexplained and inexplicable. At least that's their pitch. The reality is rather less auspicious. Their editor is a drunken, foul-tempered and foul-mouthed husk of a man who thinks little of the publication he edits. His staff are a ragtag group of misfits. And as for the assistant editor...well, that job is a revolving door - and it has just revolved to reveal Hannah Willis, who's got problems of her own.

What a Joy!
This is one of the best book series I have had the pleasure of reading...and I'm waiting with excitement for the completion of Book 5. Mr. Lumsden, thank you for introducing us to Alex Southerland! Thank you for amazing stories and witty, funny, serious and diverse characters of all stripes, creatures and winds! It is getting harder and harder to find consistently great book series. This one has hit the mark. P.S. I enamored with Duffy P. Weber's voice! THE BEST choice in narrator for this series, period!

Four for Four
If you've been a fan of the previous 3 books this one is worth your time. Personally book 2 , A Witch Walks into my Office, is still my favorite. I think it's done the best job of still being a solid detective story along with everything else. The narrator continues to do a fantastic job. I eagerly awaited the release of this book and I'll be doing the same for book 5.

A Hoot!
Non-spoiler version: Douglas Lumsden has written another noir urban fantasy GEM!
A Night Owl Slips into a Diner being the 4th book in the Alexander Southerland P.I. Series, it is a tad hard going into details without spoilers.
So, to summarize a bit, this book has industrial espionage, secretive government agencies, damaged beast mobiles, and otherworldly spirits.
Duffy P. Weber does bang-up job with the narration.
