This twisted Edinburgh tries its best to keep her down, but she never stops."-- Library Journal , starred review "Postcatastrophe Edinburgh is full of compelling background characters, villains, and details of everyday life--and Ropa is a delight to read, even as her tumble into danger can turn into a bit of a nailbiter."-- Booklist Praise for the Edinburgh Nights series: "Alluring, shadowy Edinburgh with its hints of sophisticated academic magic will draw you in, but it''s Ropa--a hard knocks ghostalker on her paranormal grind to pay the rent--who grabs hold.
