(Exhibit One: Visions of an ancient Egyptian goddess no one else can see.)Someone is stalking Washington DC's vampire elite. And when an ancient evil invades the actual courthouse, Sarah's arcane training goes into overdrive.

Law and Murder by Mindy Klasky was a fun read and the main character was entertaining. This is a great vacation read as there's nothing strenuous to think about. ( )

This is the second in the series. Klasky is builds a believable world where vampires, sphinxes and other creatures exist along side regular reality. I'm curious how the main character's relationship with her human best friend will grow and change as the main character gets more immersed in the vampire/Sphinx world. ( )

Ok, so I'm married to the author, just to get that out of the way. This was exactly the book I needed to read right now. I love the voice and attitude of Sarah, our main character, and everyone around her is fleshed out enough (pun somewhat intended) that things feel real even when they are decidedly unreal. I found myself engrossed in both the plot and the character arcs which always makes for a good read. LAW AND MURDER is a fun and rewarding read. ( )

Second in a series, but it wasn't a problem. I am sure that reading the first book would have been helpful, but I still enjoyed this one. Sarah Jane Anderson is the clerk of the supernatural night court, and a sphinx. There are the usual vampires and other supernatural beings, but sphinxes are fairly unusual and Klasky fits them into her paranormal 'verse in an interesting way. Overall, enjoyable and I would like to read more in the series and by this author in other series. I received this e-book free through the LibraryThing Early Reviewers program in return for an unbiased review. ( )

Second book in a series, which I didn't know until I started to read it. Sometimes you don't miss anything starting in a second book, this is not the one. You miss background for Sarah. She is a sphinx, who according to very old rules has to protect vampires and is in love with one. But she is also a little bit in love with Chris who is the Sun Lion, the strongest sphinx of the Eastern Empire.
Sarah discovered late (in the first book) that she is a sphinx, but everything comes together for her. She has a big touch of OCD, which is kind of normal for them. But there are also things about where she comes from which are not explainable right away.
Anyway, even without the history of the first book it's a nice read. A very different look at vampires and I read a lot of books with those guys. The twist at the end is exciting and leaves the door open for other books, and there is a third part.
Disclaimer: I got this book in the Librarything Early Reviewers. ( )
