Downpour by Kat Richardson
4.0
The sixth installment of the Greywalker series takes place outside of Seattle, on the Olympic Peninsula, where strange things are happening in the Grey:
"There was something deeply wrong with Lake Crescent; I knew it even before I saw the accident that wasn't there. The ground seemed to hum and mutter as if a current raged beneath it. Cobwebs of colored light leaked from the Grey - that slippery place between the normal and the paranormal where ghosts are real and magic gleams like neon reflected in wet, black streets."
Harper Blaine is a Greywalker - a person who has died, for a moment or more, and come back to life able to see this in-between. Based in Seattle, Harper has explored the mysteries of the Grey in London and LA, in previous books. This is her first excursion to the Peninsula. Whether this is your first trip into the Grey, or your sixth, Kat Richardson's compelling descriptions and strong, quirky characters will pull you into the mystery as well. I love this series - having coded myself once, I was drawn to this when I saw Poltergeist (which I think was the second one). I found all the others published at the time and read them within a week. This installment took two days - only because life got in the way. While I had tpo wait a few months for Downpour on the library list, it is one that I will buy when i have the money and add to my collection of Richardson books. I highly recommend any in this series!
