Book 19: Hammers on Bone by Cassandra Khaw

This is a Tor free novella that I got a couple of years ago and finally got around to reading. It's a noir crime story with a supernatural twist; it reminded me a bit of the Rivers of London books and how they combine two distinct genres and play around with both. 

Overall I enjoyed it! The noir styling is aggressive but not over the top for me, and there's enough twists and turns in the case the P.I. takes to keep me engaged. I don't know that I would want to spend a whole novel in this world, but the length fits for the story and themes. A nice way to spend a cold winter evening. 

Grade: B
