Hell Hounds Don't Heel by Kim McDougallMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Someone is plotting to have all of the gargoyles either put in jail or dead and six feet under. They might have patrolled the Montreal Ward for decades (learning the name Guardians) but when one of them is accused of murder their reputation is immediately blackened from heroes to criminals. Gargoyle Mason promised to return from his trip to France with the only weapon capable of killing formidable witch Polina but no one has heard from him in months and she is gathering forces. This isolated Kyra as it means that she has no backup as she tries to solve a murder and take on some new and terrifying monsters while at the same time looking after her growing menagerie of supernatural creatures. Can they defeat Polina before it is too late while avoiding everything that she is throwing at them?
This was a very dramatic story as the twists and turns came one after the other mixed in with complications that were almost dizzying as Kyra did everything that she could to stay alive as well as save everyone that she considered as her family. It was also a delight to see that the relationship between Kyra and Mason developed nicely and it was great to see how much they were able to respect each other and handle their differences (even though I know Mason wasn't keen on her being in danger and alone while it was daylight). Well written and easy to read and understand. If only there were more stories in this series as I have loved the way it has developed.
