Living with the Dead (Women of the Otherworld, Book 9)

Living with the Dead  - Kelley Armstrong This novel was so unlike the other Otherworld-installments that I needed to take a step back and read the blurb again after I had finished the first few pages.It was entertaining, but new. First of all, Armstrong let several characters narrate the story in the third person POV:Robyn, the new girl, a 'mere human being' and still grieving her husband. There is no 'new' romantic interest in the book for her. Still there is something else that IS romantic and melted my heart away. -sigh-Hope, the half demon and Robyn's best friend. She narrated Personal Demons and her first appearance in a full novel was in Jaime and Jeremy's novel, No Humans Involved.Adele, the 'villain' and Colt her partner in crime.And Finn, a cop who's also able to see ghosts – although his powers are nothing against Jaime's.I have no idea how Armstrong came up with this plot – it really was very complex (not complicated in a way that would make it hard to follow the plot, though). Usually I'd want a bit more romance, but there WAS romance in the little scenes. The most obvious scenes'd be those of Hope and Karl, but there's more than that. Robyn's lovelife, if I may call it that, was present in a subtle, very lovely and sad way. But the book was dominated by the suspense.However good these poitsnw ere – and they really were good – it wasn't as hard for me to lay the book down and eat something, take a shower, call my best friend etc. as it was in some other cases, so I'll give it a 3-3.5.As I've said, it wasn't what I expected, but I don't regret buying it.
