Touch of Evil is an action-packed police procedural romantic suspense enhanced by a strong ER medical thriller subplot. The cast is solid especially the beleaguered sheriff and the emergency room doctor. However, it is the investigation that owns the novel as evidence points to serial suicides in what looks like a band member's pact until the deputy dies. Although perhaps there is too much negative activity engulfing Justine that threatens to overwhelm the whodunit, Colleen Thompson provides an entertaining gripping thriller.
Vampires, werewolves and demons are no problem for Jules, Dani, Zahara and Margo. That's because these girls are young members of a powerful coven of witches and it is their job to hunt down these evil creatures of the night. If there is a threat to innocent humans, they will be there with cape, broom and spell to take the monsters back to...where bad things go. While they fight the things that go bump in the night, they still have to keep their grades up in school and literally fly under the radar, careful to keep their magical identities a secret.
In 2003, Stephenie Meyer had a dream about a vampire and a girl who were in love. When she started writing down the tale the next morning, she had no idea that by the end of that year, it would make her the Cinderella of the young adult publishing world. Meyer's debut novel, Twilight, became an overnight best seller, making the stay-at-home mother a publishing sensation. With millions of copies of the series sold worldwide and translations in more than three-dozen languages, there is no disputing Meyer's popularity among teens and adults alike.

Thank God there are people out there who can do such tedious things so we can all enjoy these great works in English.
