Since storms kept me offline last night, I used my time productively and finished reading Vicious Circle by Linda Robertson. It is the first book in her series, featuring Persephone Alcmedi.

Persephone is a witch, who lives in a rural area. She pays the bills by writing a syndicated column and kenneling werewolves on full-moon nights. When one of the werewolves, a friend of hers, is murdered, the local high priestess asks Persephone to investigate. Her inquiries put another friend in danger, and Persephone must learn to rely on Johnny, the local alpha and leader of a Goth band, for help.

I was enthralled by this book. It started out a bit slowly, but by a third of the way in, I was thoroughly engrossed. Persephone comes across as very real. She makes mistakes, and she makes amends, even at great personal cost. I am anxious to read the other books in this series.

Five stars!
