Daniel Carter was a homicide detective when bad stuff happened and he left the force. Emily Lovecraft (yes, of those Lovecrafts) owns a bookstore that Carter gets bequeathed. And that's only the beginning
of the odd things that happen to these two.

Not sure what to make of this book. It tried to mix occult with a "real" mystery - sort of. It's definitely the first book of a series, because it just sort of ends. Not sure I'm interested enough in continuing though.
