Waking The Witch

''Armstrong is quite deft at making Savannah simultaneously formidable, sympathetic and real. . . . A quick and fun read, Waking the Witch is . . . a good starting point for readers new to Armstrong.'' - The Miami Herald

''Kelley Armstrong must have decided one day to throw every genre she could imagine -- mystery, horror, supernatural thriller, romance and chick lit -- into her writerly cauldron. What she conjured up is the hilariously hip Women of the Otherworld series.'' - Calgary Herald

Columbus is a small, fading town, untouched by the twenty-first century. But when three young women are found dead - victims of what appear to be ritual murders - things start to get very dark, and very dangerous . . .

Private investigator Savannah Levine can handle ''dark and dangerous''. As the daughter of a black witch, she has a lot of power running through her veins, and she''s not afraid to use it. But her arrival in Columbus has not gone unnoticed. Savannah may think she''s tracking down a murderer, but could she be the killer''s next target?

Of course she could always ask her old friend (and half-demon) Adam Vasic for backup. But Savannah has her own - very personal - reasons for keeping Adam well away from Columbus. And in any case, she can rely on her own powers. Can''t she . . . ?
