Jessica Moore is determined to find her real place. She
exhibits satyr-like
and other unexplained magical powers. Her dream of joining
the Gryphons,
magical law enforcement officers who protect the human race
from the pred
races, seems unlikely. As a misery junkie she gets her high
from her own
suffering. Framed for murder, the Gryphons coerce Jess into
working for them
in solving a new case.
Nine people are dead, found in an F induced sexual orgy.
Jess needs to
deduce if it was the F drug, a highly illegal aphrodisiac,
that has killed them or
does the mysterious glyph found on their bodies have
something to do with it.
Her ally, Lucen, a satyr, isn't pleased with the
investigation and it causes strain
in their relationship. The sex is hot as she submits to
Lucen who requires sex
for food in order to exist. As she gets involved in the
mystery of the drug, Jess
becomes a prime target for murder and realizes she isn't the
person she
thought. The investigation uncovers events from the past
that have come
forward to haunt her. If it weren't for her misery-sucking
abilities, one of the
Gryphon co-workers could throw her off course in finding her
true self.
DIRTY LITTLE MISERY is a story I don't usually read nor
truly enjoy. It was definitely full of
mystery, action and sex. I found it a little difficult to
separate the different
classes of characters, but further into the book it became
easier so that I could
enjoy the weave Tracey Martin creates. If you enjoy the
mystical powers at large,
this would be the book for you. This is the second book in
the Miss Misery series.
Thanks to her freakish, satyr-like power, Jessica Moore
was
denied her dream to join the Gryphons, the magical
law-enforcement officers protecting humanity from the
pred
races. But after the Gryphons tried to arrest her for
murders she didn’t commit, Jess is no longer interested.
Too
bad—they are.
Now that they know what she can do, they want Jess on
their
side. If she doesn’t agree to help them solve a new case,
they’ll charge her with every magical crime she’s ever
committed.
Nine people are dead. The cause? Exhaustion. The
activity?
Never-ending sex. Someone sold them tainted F, an illegal
aphrodisiac made by satyrs. No surprise, Jess’s satyr
allies
aren’t pleased with her investigation. Worse, it strains
her
tenuous relationship with Lucen, the one satyr she counts
as
a friend.
As Jess delves into the shady satyr business world, she
unravels a scheme more sinister than dirty drugs—and her
relationship with Lucen unravels right along with it.
Only
the truth will save their friendship. But not before it
turns Jess into an ambitious killer’s next target.
Warning: Contains blackmail, betrayal, and sex that’s
literally to die for. Plus plenty of bad stiff jokes to
go
with it. Remember, just say no to magical drugs.
