Sometimes being immortal makes you
wish you were dead.
Celeste Crenshaw has survived her
parents’ grisly murders, grueling and gender-biased police training, a battle
with rogue vampires, and even her own death. While immortality might seem a
dream come true, can she accept the strings attached?
Celeste spends the start of her
immortal life being mentored by the Elders of the Hollow Earth. They release
her once they feel certain Celeste has honed her supernatural powers. But
little do they know, Celeste isn’t wholly committed to granting eternal life to
those deserving. Upon a return home to her immortal lover, and the Kansas City
Detective Squad, she battles mortal foes, not so unlike the demonic undead. And
when a fellow detective falls victim to a murderous gang member, Celeste faces
a gut-wrenching decision and the possible wrath of the Elders.
Praise for The Immortal Twin
“. . . impressive vampiric worldbuilding [with] a fascinating cast.” —Publishers Weekly
My Review
Celeste Crenshaw, the protagonist, is an intriguing character—a recently minted immortal who also happens to be a police officer. Here's the surprise: the setting is Kansas City! It made me grin because I live 40-some miles east of Kansas City. I usually get a kick out of stories set in my neck of the woods.
Overall, The Immortal Detective is a well-written vampire narrative with numerous current twists and turns that keep the plot from slipping into the "cliched" stereotypes that other supernatural novels make. It's not flawless, as I thought there were some pacing issues in the first half, but nothing serious that detracted from my enjoyment of the book. ╌★★★★✰
About D.B. Woodling
.jpg)
Once the allure of impersonating celebrities began to wane,
D. B. Woodling left the stage and turned her attention to writing. Credited
with two historical fiction novels—Shannon’s Revenge: Broken Promises,
recognized for its literary merit, and Retribution: A Lover’s Tale—she
then switched genres and wrote The Detective Mike Malone series.
Needing a home for an ominous opening line, The
Immortal Twin, a paranormal novel, soon began to take shape. Three-winged
dragons, undead historical mentors, and police investigations abound in The
Immortal Detective, the second installment in Celeste’s journey, with
plenty of chilling twists and turns.
When she’s not creating harrowing fight scenes, steamy
encounters, or complex police investigations, Woodling calms her soul with
scenic walks, often in the company of a clowder of cats or a know-it-all golden
retriever.
