Perfect for you if...

You want an urban fantasy with real humour and snappy dialogue, where the protagonist is competent without being invincible.
You're after a slow-burn romance that doesn't overwhelm the mystery plot, with genuine chemistry between flawed characters.
You enjoy series starters that open up a whole world (hellhound dog included) without leaving you hanging on the main case.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer standalone novels or don't want to commit to a longer series before knowing if you like the world.
You're looking for paranormal romance as the main event; this is mystery-led with romance woven through.
You need morally straightforward heroes and villains rather than characters operating in grey areas.

About this book

Jinx is a private investigator with an unusual ability: she can detect lies with perfect accuracy. While useful in her work, this skill hasn't helped her solve her parents' murders. When hired to find a missing university student, Jinx suspects the case is more complicated than a simple disappearance. She's not alone in the search—Inspector Stone is also tracking the girl. When they team up, Stone introduces Jinx to a hidden realm where magic exists alongside vampyrs, werewolves, dragons, and trolls. In this world, her lie-detection abilities prove even more valuable than before. Jinx must locate the missing student, uncover the truth about her parents' deaths, and learn more about the enigmatic Inspector Stone. Her dog, it turns out, is a hellhound capable of manipulating magical realms. This novel combines urban fantasy and mystery with humor and romance. It is the first book in The Other Realm series and won the WriterHive Indie Ink Awards 2023 for Best Morally Grey Character. Written in British English.
