I am infinitely more please with this book than any others in the series. The women have far more depth and agency. They're not as one dimensional. Harry feels much more believably human and for me more likeable, much as I enjoyed him before. 
His compassion and empathy comes through as much more human and less sexist. The relationships are more complex, feeding off of what started in the previous book. Molly is better written and conversation around her and her appeal is better handled and far more respectful. This is probably going to be one of my favorite books in the series.

 Another great book from the Dresden series! I love listening to James Marsters read these books.

Harry is lured in and caught up in a case involving the lower level supernatural community, and the apparent suicides that are not really suicides. Backed up by Murphy and working alongside his first love Elaine, he has to search through his own higher level community to find the killer and bring justice to the women and children that are being slaughtered. I mean... what could go wrong?

Love this series and can't wait to read (or listen to) some more

Probably my favorite Dresden book so far. It’s wild they just keep getting better. There was one character I probably thought of as my least favorite, but I got a little sad and upset when
I got attached  lasciel/lash and then she was killed. I hope she can come back in some way.
