She is also the Preternatural Expert for the local team of law enforcement that deals with all cases where a non-human is suspected of being involved. These are her jobs, she takes pride in doing them well, and she feels useful to her fellow citizens when she's doing her job.

Terrifying (if you like that sort of thing), Brilliantly builds the suspense, Characterization is 2nd to none Terrifying (if you don't like that sort of thing)

The best book in the world you can't put it down so you have to have time to read it all

A decent enough story Nothing terribly original

Addictive, horrifying Haunting

Good, standard B-movie schlock zombie horror with no shortage of gore or casualties... Plot isn't as tightly woven or as neat as in THE RISING
