A Local Habitation
October Daye #2
Seanan McGuire
Book 2 October Daye Series.
We begin this book with Toby getting drunk and guess who takes her home and puts her to bed...Yes, the King of Cats- Tybalt. Then, of course, he disappears for chapters to come.
Sylvester, Toby's liege has asked her for help once again. He wants Toby to go and check on her niece Countess January O'Leary who resides in the County of Tamed Lightning.
Questin goes with her. When they get there, they discovered that several people have died inside the company January works in.
January has tried to call Sylvester but she can't get in touch with him.
Toby starts investigating the murders, but when things get scary she decides to sent Quentin home. Connor comes to pick him up but when they are ready to leave Sylvester keeps him there because the roads are too dangerous.
Tybalt also gets there and helps protect Toby.
The mystery was not as challenging as the first book but again the world-building was excellent and Tybalt keeps on getting better. I just don't understand why Toby can't figure it out. Even though, she has not stopped wearing his jacket.
I guess I am becoming addicted to Men Cat - or any kitty kitty reference in books. There is Curran and now there is Tybalt for me.
