A Lifting the Veil Story When PI Sam Garrett is hired by eccentric billionaire toy maker and child genius Mozart "Mo" Chance--after his apparent suicide in the hills of San Francisco--Sam takes the case out of sheer curiosity. In a world where the Veil lifted a decade ago and exposed mythical beings living among humans, Sam faces a big challenge as the mystery surrounding the case deepens. The inheritors of Mo's fortune--the uncle, the butler, the nanny, and the bodyguard--all possess secrets, and some are willing to protect them at any cost. The trouble is that Sam's partner and lover, Rex Ford, is suddenly under suspicion as well. Clouded by doubt, Sam continues to search for answers as tapestries of crimes begin to unravel and powers beyond his imagination are unleashed. If Mo endured horrific nightmares about monsters under his bed, there's no telling what dangers await a nosy PI. What dangers lurk in this darkness? Sam is about to find out. 2014 Rainbow Awards winner for Best Paranormal Romance No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

Sam used to be a cop, then a detective, but for the last five years he has been a private investigator. His family didn’t agree with many of his choices and is now a distant memory, but Sam shares his life with his partner Ford, and they are blissfully happy. It didn’t always use to be that way, but Ford changed his life about five years ago becoming a landscape architect, and ever since then, Sam and he have been happy. Now that an eccentric billionaire and boy-wonder has hired Sam – posthumously, I might add – to investigate his death, Ford is worried about Sam’s safety. Neither he nor I understood why at first – but as things progressed, and one weird thing happened after the other, I began to see Ford’s point.
Sam, like any detective or PI worth their salt, questions all the suspects – everyone who is about to inherit – and little by little, the pieces of the puzzle begin to emerge. To me, one suspect looked about as likely as the next to have been the murdered, but then, there is a reason I don’t usually read murder mysteries. I always miss all the clues. All of this to say that I thought this was a very cleverly put-together story and the truth didn’t dawn on me until I had almost finished the book. Experienced murder mystery fans may figure it out more quickly – but even then, the imaginative events and the fascinating characters are extremely entertaining in their own right.
If you like murder mysteries of the mythological kind, if a determined PI and his supportive, worried lover, are your thing, and if you’re looking for a read that is as suspenseful and intriguing as it is entertaining and fun, then you will probably enjoy this novel. I think it’s unusual and totally adored the final reveal – and Sam and Ford are adorable together! ( )
