I posted a review of D. B. Jackson’s first book in the Ethan Kaille mystery series a few weeks ago. You can read it here. With Summer winding down, I binged on the rest of the series. The Ethan Kaille series is set in pre-Revolutionary War Boston. Kaille is a thieftaker with the ability to cast spells. This unusual mixture gives this series a unique perspective of history and mystery. Book #2 in the series, Thieve’s Quarry (2013), Kaille is called in to investigate the mysterious deaths of 100 British sailors aboard their ship in Boston Harbor. Book #3, A Plunder of Souls (2014), ghosts invade Boston with dire consequences. Only Kaille has any inkling about what may be causing all the chaos. Book #4, Dead Man’s Reach (2015), begins with tensions between the British Redcoats and the colonists leading to riots. But Kaille thinks a supernatural force may be feeding the hatred between the two groups. If you enjoy historical mysteries with unusual fantasy elements, I recommend all the books in the Ethan Kaille series. GRADE: B (for all four books)
