Graveyard Shift: A Novel | Michael F. Haspil
2 posts | 2 read | 3 to read
Police procedurals go supernatural in this gritty urban fantasy debut by Michael F. Haspil in Graveyard Shift Alex Menkaure, former pharaoh and mummy, and his vampire partner, Marcus, born in ancient Rome, are vice cops in a special Miami police unit. They fight to keep the streets safe from criminal vampires, shape-shifters, bootleg blood-dealers, and anti-vampire vigilantes. When poisoned artificial blood drives vampires to murder, the city threatens to tear itself apart. Only an unlikely alliance with former opponents can give Alex and Marcus a fighting chance against an ancient vampire conspiracy. If they succeed, they'll be pariahs, hunted by everyone. If they fail, the result will be a race-war bloodier than any the world has ever seen. “Gritty urban fantasy and hard-boiled noir packed into a hand grenade of awesome!” —Mario Acevedo, author of Werewolf Smackdown At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

This is a really good one for Urban Fantasy fans or fashion paced, action books. The setting was a little familiar, you see the 'vampires living with man in the open' frequently but it had a nice gritty police procedural edge. I just wish we had more mummy powers sooner! Still a lot of fun, I'll be continuing on!

Interesting start to an #urbanfantasy series. I like that one of the main characters is a mummy.

EloisaJames Thanks! This looks great and I just downloaded it. 7y
Debiw781 @EloisaJames I hope you enjoy it! 7y
EloisaJames I got about 3-4 chapters in and hit the torture scene...is there lots of that? (I know she shifted and took out the bad guys but I was taken aback.) 7y
Debiw781 @EloisaJames I know there's a pretty graphic scene later. I don't remember otherwise. But the later scene stood out even to me and those kind of scenes don't bother me as I don't tend to visualize what I'm reading. 7y
