Friday Memes: Dragon Justice by Laura Anne Gilman

Happy Friday everybody!
Book Beginnings on Friday is now hosted by Rose City Reader. The Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice. Check out the links above for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week.

Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

Dragon Justice by Laura Anne Gilman is at the top of my stack today. This is the fourth book in her Paranormal Scenes Investigation series. I got this one from Harlequin Luna via NetGalley. Here is the description:
In my time with PUPI, formally known as Private, Unaffiliated Paranormal Investigations, I've seen a lot. Learned a lot. And not all of it's been good. But what we do—make people accountable for crimes committed with magic—is important work.

Still. Even I need to take a break every now and again. Or so I've just been told (ordered).

So hey, vacation. Maybe I'll finally figure out what's going on with the "special bond" between me and the boss man, Benjamin Venec. Venec seems to like that idea—he's invited me down to join him on a jaunt to Philly. But no sooner do I arrive in the City of Brotherly Love than we're called in to look at a dead body.

And that's when life gets really complicated….
Beginning:
Yesterday was, unofficially, the second anniversary of PUPI. Two years ago, we were hired, me and Nick, Nifty, Pietr, and Sharon.
Friday 56:
The pain in my stomach got worse. "You have another missing kid?"

"Two, actually. Probably dusted."

That was slang for being lured by one of the more seductive fatae breeds - like Danny's.
This book will be published on July 24.

  1. How exactly do you pronounce PUPI? At least you must be enjoying these books enough to continue the series.

    Here's my Book Beginning.

  3. This sounds really interesting - I've gotten two of the books in the series but haven't had a chance to read them.
