Los Angeles is stunned by the attack on a priest by a woman
who confesses to have killed her own son. At the same time
reports are flooding in of a crazywoman floating in and out
of gang fights, playgrounds, harbours, and a trail of death
seems to follow in her wake. Meanwhile, on the other side
of LA, Cordy is getting her foot in the door of the acting
industry by taking on a case to find a producer's missing
wife. Can there be any connection? And will there be time
to find out what it is...?
Bruja
is an average TV spin off novel. It has a good plotline, but
it feels a little slow, and by the time all the information
comes together you've pretty much worked out the twist for
yourself. The story revolves around Angel investigations working
as a team, taking on a selection of jobs and working together
to fill in the gaps and stop the insane lady in black from
continuing her rampage of terror. Cordelia's character is
the most close to home, for as ever her witty comments are
perfectly timed, and you feel that the author knows the character
well.
The
lady in black element of the story is the most riveting, and
is told well, leaving you full of suspense as to how the pieces
fit together, but the overall flow and dialogue of the book
is pretty average. It could have been made better by pushing
the envelope and gaining the fans undivided interest by giving
more background info to the characters. A good book, and worth
the read, but it seems followers of Buffy and Angel
may expect more from it.
