"This series is worth your time." (Jim Butcher, number one New York Times best-selling author of The Dresden Files)
What do shadows darting across the walls, cryptic writing, black fog, and a little girl who can see ghosts have in common? Paranormal investigator and soul without a body Vincent Graves has 44 hours to find out.
To make matters worse, his years of body-hopping and monster-hunting are catching up with him. He's losing his mind. An old contact has shut him out. To top it all off, something's skulking through an asylum, killing patients.
Three guesses who might be next, and the first two don't count. The writing on the wall is not so clear. But one thing is: If he doesn't figure this out he's a dead man - well, deader - and a strange young girl might follow. Vincent's got his back against a wall, and that wall's crumbling.
Some days it's not worth it to wake up in someone else's body.

A fantastic premise populated by fantastic characters

I may not be a writer, but I am a consumer of the written/spoken word. And one trend that I see being ground into urban paranormal is this self flagellating style of character development. Can we stop? Please? These characters can be well developed and be imperfect and even antihero-like without the constant, self loathing and self flagellating, that appears in this book. I can deal with the over-the-top, snarky remarks better than with that. Hint: less snark and more substance please. In an audiobook I feel snark may become overkill very fast.
While this character does not appear as misogynistic as Jim Butcher’s earlier work (why I stopped reading his books after one) why do writers have such a difficult time relating to a strong, female character? Why does she have to come off like a nag just because she is determined, bad assed, and holds the main character accountable for his actions? Ortiz comes off more like a supernatural bully to Vincent than a partner. It’s such a shame as her role could be so much more with less of her written angst.
Anyway I may consider the third book after a long break and if there is a fourth. I love a series and this one has the makings of a long running one in my opinion. I’m cheering for this author to grow this world and its characters.
Intriguing world and protagonist predicament.

Even better.

Vincent Graves has grown on me. I wanted a bigger cast of regulars than just Vincent, Ortiz, and Church. Like in book 1, the climactic fight scene ran long.
However, these were minor criticisms for an entertaining listen.
“It was like that scene from Jurassic Park: don’t move and the T-Rex won’t spot you,
i also resolved never to let Ortiz know that I had compared her to a dinosaur.”
This installment leaned into horror. But, thankfully, the horror is balanced with humor and sarcasm.
“How do I gank it?”
Hunh, turns out that’s a real word. After the upteenth time he used it, I looked it up. In video game speak, it means to kill with maximum effort, maybe even with dirty tricks. Whatever works when dark things need extermination.
Who’s running this asylum, anyway?
