Great start to this spin off series

Pree is jobless yet again and decides to go home to London. But now that she knows about magic, she can't act like she doesn't, so she manages to get herself involved with an unaffiliated vampire being harassed by elemental magic users. As if that wasn't enough in her life, she needs a job, so she finds Charon and strikes a deal where she has one week to bring him a lost soul that needs to crossover. Add in finding a chained-up hyena to her week and you have most of Pree's first week back home. Now all Pree has to do is find a ghost, take care of a hyena without anyone knowing and keep a vampire from being attacked in less than a week. Easy right?
Omg do I like Pree. I loved Apiya when I read her books and I may like Pree even more! She is definitely on the morally grey spectrum, her family business being petty crimes (to her mother's dismay). She has lines she will not cross, but she is not above small-time illegal activity. Her family comes first and she doesn't back down when she thinks something is unjust. She is absolutely hilarious to me as well. Her family is definitely quirky, but they are close knit. Ben, the vampire, is a quirky character as well. I can't say that I have ever seen a vegan vampire.
This book was definitely a world building book. Not as much as action as Apiya's series, but Pree is still learning the basics of magic. We are learning about how the London magic system works, which appears different than Panong. I enjoyed getting to know London in this book and "seeing" all the different parts of it. This book is also an introduction to new characters, even though there a couple from Api's series. There are some tense moments during the book and I enjoyed the end of the book. It definitely highlighted Pree's quick thinking and ingenuity. I also love that even though she's a character from a previous series she has her own voice and this book is written with a different tone.
