Then the strange things start happening. First a package from an old professor with her new office address, that she hasn't announced yet, on it. Then a phone call from a man who died earlier in the day. Spooky but nothing that can't be explained, Bree doesn't realise that that she has just opened a ghostly new law practice and her first client is already in the afterlife.
This is the first book in a paranormal cozy mystery series called Beaufont & Company. This first book is sometimes slow and also a little confusing at times but by the end of the book I was sure that this is a series I want to follow. Not only is this fresh and new but it is quite charming as well. This stands out because it is extremely different to anything I have come across until now. Ghosts, afterlife and angels are all mixed into a law firm and it has a great main character to put it all together.
Defending Angels is the first book in the series and Angel's Advocate, the second installment, is due out in July. A nice blend of paranormal and mystery, this has grabbed my attention and it reminds me alot of the cozy mysteries written by Charlaine Harris.
