About this listen
Monsters with a taste for children are nothing new, but fairy tales never mentioned this nightmarish predator. Rue has her hands full tracking the creature hunting the streets of Charleston, but a call from home divides her attention—and her loyalties.
A stranger has come to Hollis Apothecary, asking questions that prickle the hairs on her nape, but she can't abandon the victims based only on a bad feeling. The pit in her stomach only grows when the stranger takes a hostage and makes his demands. He wants to talk to Rue, face to face. Or else. What he has to say will change her life, and her perception of her past, forever.
Contains mature themes.

Story
Grier Woolworth spends her nights weaving spooky tales of lost souls and tragedies for tourists on the streets of downtown Savannah. Hoop skirt and parasol aside, it's not a bad gig. The pay is crap, but the tips keep the lights on in her personal haunted mansion and her pantry stocked with ramen. Life is about as normal as it gets for an ex-necromancer hiding among humans - until the society that excommunicated Grier offers her a second chance at being more than ordinary. Too bad no one warned her the trouble with being extraordinary is it can get you killed.

Hadley Whitaker is a liar, a killer, and a chocoholic, but she's getting better about the first two. Or maybe she's just getting better at them. Some days it's hard for her to tell fact from fiction, but only one truth matters. Goddess willing, she's going to be the next Potentate of Atlanta. Even if it means playing nice with Midas Kinase, a shifter whose mysterious past might just be grimmer than her own. When a bloodthirsty rogue begins hunting the city's paranormals, Hadley ropes Midas into letting her work the case. But that rope starts to feel more like a noose.

"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

Welcome to The Slaughtered Lamb Bookstore and Bar. I'm Sam Quinn, the werewolf book nerd in charge. I run my business by one simple rule: Everyone needs a good book and a stiff drink, be they vampire, wicche, demon, or fae. No wolves, though. Ever. I serve the supernatural community of San Francisco. We've been having some problems lately. Okay, I'm the one with the problems. The broken body of a female werewolf washed up on my doorstep. What makes sweat pool at the base of my spine, though, is realizing the scars she bears are identical to the ones I conceal.

I’m one placement away from becoming a fully fledged London detective. It’s bad enough that my last assignment before I qualify is with Supernatural Squad. But that’s nothing compared to what happens next. Brutally murdered by an unknown assailant, I wake up 12 hours later in the morgue - and I’m very much alive. I don’t know how or why it happened. I don’t know who killed me. All I know is that they might try again.

I'm not your average girl. My best friend is my switchblade. My favorite hobby is using it on the cruel, the abusive, and anyone who gets on my bad side. I'm a convicted murderer with a chip on my shoulder and a dangerous lack of restraint. And then there's Zak. His rap sheet makes mine look tame. The bounty on his head is worth more money than I'll ever make, and the deadly fae that shadow his every step wield more power than I'll ever know. He's the Crystal Druid, and his first mistake was setting foot on my turf. His second was saving my life.

Getting better
Fun characters, a bit too romancy at times but fun in general. this one jumps over into explicit sex, fyi. Ending on this one really draws one into next book. I hope the eventual payoff is worth it. The crime mystery, 4/5th of the book was just ok. The bigger plot element is more interesting and town character seem best part.

#TeamRue for the win!
The crew is at it again. Together they’re going to kick butt and take names. Maybe not in that order.
I love Rue. Her bond with Colbie, Clay and Asa grows with each book. I will say, shew, the amount of trouble that follows this group is banana pants—and yet—it makes the story all the better.
When someone shows up and puts her people in danger, Rue will do what’s needed to keep them safe. If her claws come out, you better watch yourself.
I like the way things unfold. You think, “oh, I knew it as…nope. Dang, I didn’t see that coming”. Maybe that’s just me but I like when it’s not what I think it is. Bad guys, monsters, jerks… the story has it all and we get to see the team acting and reacting to what’s happening. They’re a well oiled machine to say the least.

Wow, surprise ending.
This series gets better and better. Rue's Black Hat group is off to Charleston after whoever is making the kiddos disappear. There are new monsters, new dangers, and lots of hijinks. I fall in love with Clay, Colby, and Asa's demon more and more. Don't get me wrong, I love Rue and Asa, but the other three crack me up. And who can harden their heart to a demon who thinks "Wash, Brush, Braid" is Thanksgiving?
This book made me laugh, cry, smile, and sigh. It also kept my complete attention, with lots of action, surprises, and unexpected depths. I highly recommend this book and series to anyone who likes lovable characters and a compelling storyline.

4 Stars 🌟
I took a fairly long break (time wise and book wise) between the 3rd and 4th book of this series and unfortunately it took me a little bit of time to remember who was who and what was going on. I think (though I'm not completely sure) that the first three books were a story arc that was mostly completed, like the first trilogy and this 4th book brought us to the new story arc that has Rue now working back with the Black Hat organization - even if it is not something she is wanting to do. The Director knows exactly what buttons to push to back her into a corner.
One thing I DID remember was the fantastic characters of Colby, Clay and Asa. I love the world of characters that Ms. Edwards has created and the family that they are building. Who knew that a moth fae, a Gollum, a black witch and a couple of demon/fae's - not to mention two human girls - could create such a wonderful family. Colby and Clay are a hoot :)
I alternated between listening and reading this and the narrator - Stephanie Richardson - did a fine job. I enjoyed her portrayal of most characters (especially Colby) but really kind of had a hard time with Clay's voice. Oh well, I did enjoy it for the most part.
This book has the gang working their first case with the BH organization and there is an arrival at the Apothecary shop while Rue is out of town. Eventually we find out that the visitor is someone COMPLETELY unexpected and he brings information that totally changes Rue's world view...on EVERYTHING.
So - the next book is going to be interesting. Things are about to get pretty crazy...or should I say...crazier!
