Paranormal Nonsense
Steve Higgs
Vampire Suspense
Fight a demon, investigate a werewolf biker gang, have tea with mum … it’s all in a day’s work for England’s #1 paranormal P.I.
‘It’s like Jack Reacher got stuck inside an episode of Scooby-Doo and chose to punch his way out!’ – Amazon reviewer.
When a master vampire starts killing people in his hometown, paranormal investigator, Tempest Michaels, takes it personally …
… and soon a race against time turns into a battle for his life. He doesn’t believe in the paranormal but has a steady stream of clients with cases too weird for the police.
Mostly it’s all nonsense, but when a third victim turns up with bite marks in her lifeless throat, can he really dismiss the possibility that this time the monster is real?
Joined by an ex-army buddy, a disillusioned cop, his friends from the pub, his dogs, and his mother (why are there no grandchildren, Tempest?), our paranormal investigator is going to stop the murders if it kills him …
… but when his probing draws the creature’s attention, his family and friends become the hunted.
Uncaged Review: Tempest Michaels makes his living as a paranormal investigator, normally debunking the paranormal part of the case for his clients. It’s all gone well, up until now. There is a series of murders, all with their throats torn out and it’s being dubbed as “The Vampire Killer,” and with the help of a police officer, will he be able to help find the killer, or is there really a vampire in town?
This book had a lot of witty dialog, and with his two dachshunds, Bull and Dozer, it turns Tempest into a very likable, if unlikely, hero in the story. There was plenty of action and a few fun cases to get it started, but this is an enjoyable read in the private detective/mystery genre with a slap of paranormal. It was a tad slow for me in a lot of places and this is written in British English, but so easy to keep up with. Overall, it’s a fun book to introduce you to this character. Reviewed by Cyrene
