2013 book 119

C.S. Harris' When Serpents Sleep
YES! I have been hoping that Hero Jarvis--a minor character in the first three books--would get to be more prominent--I mean, it seems a waste to have an intelligent woman with powerful relatives and not have her do anything besides occasionally snark at Sebastian. And she's all over this one, right away, as she enlists Sebastian to investigate an arson and murder at a home for reformed prostitutes, since she was there interviewing women for social justice purposes and witnessed the crime. But that is just the beginning! Tons of intrigue and drama and discussions of social class abound. I love it. A.
