Welcome to the 1-Week Virtual Book Tour for The Demons of Wall Street (Nora Simeon Investigations #1), an Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Novella by Laurence Raphael Brothers.
About the Book:
Nora Simeon hates demons.
But as an investigator for the secretive Commission, the organization that regulates financial sorcery in New York City, she deals with the creatures a lot more than she'd like. Her latest case has her on the track of a rogue demon, escaped from magical bondage as an analyst for a leading investment bank.
On the demon's trail, Nora crosses paths with a beautiful young man named Eyre. He's too pretty and complaisant to be human, and too kind to be a demon in human form, but what else could he be? Together they become embroiled in the secret corruption at the heart of the financial industry. But before Nora can untangle a twisted skein of sorcerous murder and intrigue, she has to untangle her feelings for Eyre. And before she can do that, she has to find out who and what he really is.
Review for Demons of Wall Street by
Laurence Raphael Brothers…
4 Stars for an entertaining mash that can
only be described as, “Supernatural meets Wall Street meets Fight Club!”
Demons of Wall Street is a tongue-in-cheek
detective romp with a paranormal spin, and one of my newest guilty pleasures.
Kudos to Laurence Raphael Brothers who, with his imagination and literary spark
in the mix, has created a cast of fresh characters and world so intriguing and
fantastical, I can hardly wait for this novella’s sequel to be released.
Hard-ass, no-nonsense detective Nora
Simeon is under retainer for the ‘Commission’, a big-brother-like organization
who keeps a handle on demons coming into the world to be used as slaves. When a
demon from a top financial company escapes, it’s up to Simeon, who possesses
minimal magic abilities and detests demons of any kind, to capture and contain the
creature before the ‘mundanes’ (ordinary humans) discover its existence. Forced
to pair with Eyre, a magical being who Nora finds striking and mysterious, they
must confront the real threat behind who is kidnapping the demon-slaves, even if
it reveals the dirty truth about the Commission.
