It's not that Harper likes him - far from it - but the vampire is too powerful for Harper to ignore or snub him. Kammerling hires her to travel to England to find out why the keeper of his accounts in that part of the world has gone silent. Harper is actually happy to have the excuse, because she's been having nightmares about her former boyfriend, Will Novak, and wants to make certain that he's okay. It has its own unique take among the enormous flood of paranormal series, which is pretty hard to do these days. In fact, just about everything is unique and not a recycled take on some other popular series. I give respect to the author for dreaming up the Grey and for not making every monster sexy. Actually any of the monsters. And especially for not creating a 3-way with love interests or the usual instant love and making it very secondary to the plot. This installment offered some useful background information on Harper, though at times it felt like something of an info-dump. The London setting was a nice change, though it seemed to draw less heavily on the kind of urban legend landscapes that the earlier novels do in Seattle. Perhaps this isn't unexpected as Richardson lives in Seattle, and not in London. We finally get some information about greywalkers, and several plot points that began in the first book were followed up here. In all, a good installment.

Pertence a SérieGreywalker (4)
For Seattle investigator Harper Blaine, her own case may prove the most difficult to solve. Why did she--as opposed to others with near-death experiences--become a Greywalker? When she begins digging into her own past, she unearths some unpleasant truths about her father's early death as well as a mysterious puzzle. She sets out to find his ghost, but encounters only a void where he should be, leaving her with more unanswered questions.--From publisher's description.
