A decaying world full of science and superstition

Ty Merrick is not your usual detective. She is a Marshal on the police force of distict one in the new world order. It's a world of diminished natural resources, dictotorship, corruption and grinding poverty and flurshing 'invisible magic'.Ty is also a werewolf as a result of an accident which left her with weird brain damage. The author has taken an original approach with this aspect of ty's life.In this novel ty and her partner andy take on the office of 'intelligence'a sink hole of weirdo's and the home of 'invisible magic'.If you like detective stories and sf, and horror, I reccomend this series. This is the 3rd book in the 'moon'series, with these characters. In addition the author has also written 2 other titles with 'file' in the title with these people. Worth a read.

Terrific sci-fi/mystery blend

Earth no longer consists of multitude of governments ever since a cunning dictator, espousing humanitarianism, created a single totalitarian entity. The twenty-first century is not a comfortable time. Electrical outages are common and increasing numbers of people are forced to live in tent cities and cardboard boxes. The government controls every aspect of life. Marshal Ty Merrick, a government police officer, sees first hand how the people are controlled and manipulated. Ty, a lycanthrope, is in charge of discovering who assassinated three government psychic agents, a unit that spied on the people through their collective minds. The Office of Intelligence wants the perpetrator quickly found, but Ty realizes that this is probably an inside job. The problem is that the killer is a rogue operative who believes he is the dreaded Manjinn, an immortal demon unanswerable to humans MANJINN MOON is the perfect blending of mystery and science fiction with a few paranormal elements sprinkled on top of the exciting story line. This appealing cross-genre novel will gather Denise Vitola a large fan base that will perceive that the book is on the cutting edge of literature. Ms. Vitola has extrapolated the current world-wide social and economic conditions into a stunning novel of warning that should be the opening act of a fantastic series. Harriet Klausner
