A light paranormal read with a great premise and lots going on.

Circe Latham has finally found a way to live with her gift by hiding in plain sight. Able to see the dead, she has become a K9 Search and Rescue worker who, with her GSD Zelda, specializes in finding bodies. It's actually a really cool idea - and even though Circe tends to see the ghost first, she lets Zelda make the actual "find".

In Necromantia, we start of with a search that ends up with Circe and Zelda finding three bodies in a small part of a public park. There appears to be a serial killer at work in the area and they just found one of his hiding spots - and throughout the book, Circe and Zelda stumble across a few more. Honestly, I'd never leave the house if there was a better than 60% chance that I'd find a dead body on my run - but let's be honest, I wouldn't be leaving my house to go for a run in the first place.

The book has elements of paranormal, mystery, suspense, action and romance but doesn't really dig deep into any one of them which makes it a pretty light read. The main plot revolves around the discovering the bodies of the victims of a serial killer, the really fast romance between Circe and Diana (detective), a secondary romance between the secondary characters. Throw in a stalker, some arson, and the killer's POV and there's lots going on. Despite the fact that one of the main characters and a strong secondary character are detectives - there isn't much detail around the investigation and little detail around how the women have been killed, what lines of the investigation are being taken, etc. I think if one or two of the plotlines had been a bit more developed or detailed I would have been completely engaged. I wished Wohl had gone deeper into Circe's history/experience or the investigation or even into the killer's head to make a meatier read.

Wohl includes the POV of the killer as a way to increase the suspense and throw some red herrings. Normally, I hate when this device is used, but Wohl made it work and I think it was quite clever as it was intriguing to try to get a handle on what was driving him to killing and it added to the mystery with some good hints and red herrings.

This book was an interesting read. I liked all the twists and turns.
