The Alchemical Detective (Riga Hayworth #2)

Amazon / Goodreads

GOODREADS BLURB

Her gargoyle’s got an attitude.

Her magic’s on the blink.

Alchemy might be the cure… if Riga can survive long enough to puzzle out its mysteries.

The first in the addictive, action-packed Riga Hayworth series.

Someone’s killing psychics in bucolic Lake Tahoe, and the police think Riga may be connected to the crimes.

They could be right.

Riga recognizes the sinister hand of a long-dead enemy in the crime scene. Juggling demons, daimons, and a devilish casino owner, can this metaphysical detective catch a killer before she becomes the next target?

If you’re a fan of Patricia Briggs, Jim Butcher, Charlaine Harris or Deborah Harkness, don’t miss this twisty paranormal mystery, because this complicated, 40-something heroine isn’t like the others…

I added The Alchemical Detective by Kirsten Weiss to my TBR on 11.8.12 and I am sooooo glad I am doing the Backlog post. I may never have found this otherwise. A female Gargoyle…sounds like a hoot to me and I am glad the book was brought to my attention….again. 🙂 What a fun play on the character’s name….Riga Hayworth.
