Thank you to NetGalley for providing a review copy.
This book has quite a lot going on. It could best be described as urban fantasy horror noir. The world-building is interesting and unique, with the magical system being based in real religions and traditions. I enjoyed learning about the characters, shows back stories are revealed bit by bit. I hope that this book will be the first in series, as I felt it definitely has potential for more great stories. 4.25 stars
