Publisher's Summary

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.

Now Alex has his book of spells, a pack of matches and four days to find out where the plague came from, or that authorities will hang the crime squarely on him.

Is the MC the creep, or just the writer?

MC takes his client to the location of her brothers death, tells her that he has died, brings out whisky, lets her get drunk, and when she starts to cry he "comforts" her by having sex with her on her dead brothers bed. While he is doing this he muses that he was "surprised she didnt object". WTF? Afterwards he vaugley muses to himself about developing a relationship with her, without ever have any kind of discussion with her other than the case? Meanwhile his male gaze is drooling all over every other nonmatronly female in the book. The author should watch Promising Young Woman to get a clue how deeply sleezy his main character actually presents as. Plot was interesting, but ending was clunky and had some significant motivation and plot holes. I would like to like this book more but MC is a bit too ickky for my taste. If it had been written 50 years ago or if he had been wracked with self loathing and shame and sought her forgiveness or tried confession (he knew some priests) I would give it another star and recommend this book more highly. There is a strong female character, which looks to be set up to reappear later, so there is some hope. Id love to see her find out what this guy did with his client and watch her rip him a new one.

The next Dresden Files

Love the series, the story is light and entertaining and is hard to turn off. My only complaint comes from the narrator itself. The main character sounds like he is 14.
