About this audiobook

I’m Jinx, a run-of-the-mill private investigator...except I’m also a walking, talking lie detector. Oh, and I belong to magical realm known as the Other.

Murder isn’t usually my gig, but when I’m hired to investigate the death of a dryad called Reggie, I agree to help out because I know his grieving widow. It should be an easy case to crack, a mugging gone wrong, but the murder scene photos show it was anything but. Reggie’s death has all the hallmarks of my parents’ murders so I’ll stop at nothing to finding his killers. It’s so important I’d even be willing to tag in Stone to help - if I could find him...

Reggie was into some bad stuff involving a drug called Boost. Take it, and you play Russian roulette because either you get high or you die. As the drug claims another victim, I find myself with a new sidekick who is determined to fight its evil influence and he just happens to be the king of the dragon community.

Now I have two deaths to solve and one suave dragon king along for the ride.

I need to find Reggie’s murderer.

I need to discover who killed my parents.

And I need to keep my distance from the charismatic dragon Emory, who refuses to take no for an answer...

Jinx has been introduced but there is so much to learn! Her truth seeker abilities help as does one sexy dragon named Emory. Love the purple sky and turquoise grass the world of the other! While she investigates a murder she finds it is similar to how her parents were killed. Plus lots of oddities about the Other keep her guessing. I love Alyse Gibbs narration! She brings each character to life with their own voice and makes the book more magical.

Still acclimating to life as a Truth Seeker and a Wizard, Jinx is approached by a Dryad (Joyce from book 1), to find her husband. Allegedly killed in a robbery, Jinx uncovers a far more seedier cause of death, as well as links to an illegal drug. It gets the attention of the king of the Dragons, Emory, and together, the two start a dangerous (at times comical), investigation. Outstanding storytelling and Character work, with Exceptional Narration by the Angelic Alyse Gibbs.

I listened to the omnibus with my two kids (ages 11 and 13) and they love, love, love getting to listen to audiobooks in the car. They love Jinx and watching her relationship with Emory grow, her friendship with Lucy, Glimmer and its bl00dlu$t, and all the supernatural of The Other Realm. The narrator does a great job of bringing it to life for my kids.
