Just distracted I guess. I enjoyed it. I think that Kerr's books are a fun addition to the supernatural/fantasy detective genre. (If that is what we should call it.) I believe it was the 3rd book in the series coming out that had me going back and finishing this one. Nola O'Grady, who works for a secret government agency fighting the forces of Chaos, is now living with Ari Nathan, an Israeli Interpol agent and probable spy, A series of drownings by rogue waves leads to a new transdimensional danger. This reads like a middle book, although there is resolution to the immediate problem. Nola is an appealing heroine, commitment-phobic and borderline anorexic, but also talented and confident in her own abilities. Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

The story follows on from book 1, which if you havent read (like me) it's a little hard to catch up on, but generally the story is ok. She is following up in chasing the missing members of the coven that was broken up in Book 1. Meanwhile there are entities coming over from an alternate dimension, her brother is trying to get his new radioactive girlfriend over from this alternate dimension (where she has been working as a prostitute), a new business partner of her brother in law is blackmailing him and is in far too deep. There's also a small mystery of Nola's missing Irish father, who in this book she finds out why he's missing, that he's not really as dead as everyone thought, and some of the reasons he left Ireland in the first place.
Nola has psychic powers, which now places her at the head of a really really secret agency. She is following up the other people from the coven she broke up in book 1, an investigation that leads her to more deaths, more visitations and surprises from alternate worlds. I dont know the background behind the "not wanting to eat" issue - she's not anorexic, just never seems to be hungry and is always being told to eat - and there are detail descriptions of what she's wearing (I dont know why). They seem to change clothes more often than they eat, which is a little strange (and of course, no visits to the bathroom)! ( )
