This was a solid debut and prequel to a series.

The dialogue of the Detectives Khlid, Sam, and Chapman felt like an episode of Law & Order; it felt like a close-knit squad that has its issues. Chapman had qualities that reminded me of Sherlock - a wild, stubborn, and genius detective that gets to the bottom of the truth at the detriment of others lol Then add in beings that are above the law. So many influences in one novella!!

I think if you like the banter between detectives in Law & Order, with a great detective that finds the truth regardless of others safety and higher ups full of secrets and lies, you'll like this novella.
