Death takes precedence and the team's first freelance assignment involves an uncanny case where two human husks are discovered. Bones, blood and organs are nowhere to be found. Only the skin is left. It's as if the victim's insides simply dissolved. One of these bodies is a John Doe while the other is identified as a janitor from Weatherfield R&D, a scientific research and development company. Interestingly enough, Dahlia has past interests in this firm when she was a struggling newspaper journalist. With renewed effort, Dahlia gets right down to business with this investigation. Yet there seems to be much more than meets the eye when another husk turns up and a fellow team member is injured. This sense of urgency pulls the plot forward, making the pages fly by so quickly!
Kelly Meding crafts an intricate plot that is sure to keep you guessing. Just when you think you know what will happen, Meding shocks you with a premeditated move you didn't see coming. She managed to pull several twists on me and I'm still reeling!
CHANGELING is an entertaining urban fantasy with an interesting storyline, compelling characters and an alluring world. If you're looking for a book that will take you for a ride and shock you, then look no further. CHANGELING is it. I barely had a chance to catch my breath between chapters.
Book Summary
HEROES FOR HIRE
After barely escaping a madman’s attempt to annihilate all MetaHumans, Kelly Meding’s supernatural crime fighters have banded together to take back the streets of war-ravaged Los Angeles.Dahlia “Ember” Perkins still feels like an outsider among her new Meta friends, despite everything she’s been through since coming into her miraculous ability to absorb heat and extinguish fires. But when the police need help investigating human skins discarded like slipcovers on the street, the Metas’ youngest team member quickly finds her place.
Evidence points to a murderer the likes of which they have never encountered but who inexplicably seems to be gunning for Dahlia—and who may be neither human nor Meta. After a bullet meant for her nearly kills one of her teammates, Dahlia uncovers a connection to the crimes buried deep in her past. As the danger escalates and her personal life falls apart, Dahlia soon learns there’s no such thing as a “normal” relationship when you’re a superhero. . . .
