Genny's life has never been busier: the summer solstice is approaching, magic is going haywire, Spellcrackers.com is under inexperienced new management, and London is hosting this year's Carnival Fantastique. Then a unicorn is found horribly mutilated in Regent's Park, garden fairies start dying out of season, and an eminent wildlife activist and her young son are snatched from a Conservation Conference. Searching for answers takes Genny and her friends, Tavish the kelpie and the super-sexy vampire Malik al-Khan, deep into magical London to the decadent and dangerous Forum Mirabilis, the secret, bloody heart of the Carnival Fantastique. And it's not long before Genny and her friends are...
On the surface, Genny's life seems ripple-free right now. Finn, her sexy boss and — well, Genny's not sure what else she wants him to be, but he's stopped pushing for a decision on their relationship. The seductive vampire Malik al-Khan has vanished back into the shadows. And the witches have declared her no longer a threat. But unless Genny can find a way to break the fertility curse afflicting London's fae, she knows this is just the lull before the magical storm. Then a faeling — a teenage girl — is fished out of the River Thames, dead and bound with magic, and Genny is called into investigate. As she digs through the clues, her search takes a sinister and dangerous turn, exposing...
All Genny wants is to live the quiet life and to do her job at Spellcrackers.com but there's her tangled personal life to sort out first. She's being haunted by ghosts who want her help. Her witch neighbours want her evicted. Genny's sort-of-Ex—and now her new boss—can't decide whether he wants their relationship to be business or pleasure now he knows all her darkest secrets. And then there's the queue of vampires all wanting her to paint the town red—how long will it be before they stop taking 'no' for an answer and Genny's life becomes even more complicated? But when one of her human friends is murdered by sidhe magic, Genny is determined to find the killer. Her efforts to find the real...
Genevieve Taylor is a Sidhe, one of the noble fae, and she's unusual, even in present-day London where celebrity vampires, eccentric goblins and scheming lesser fae mix freely with the human population. Genny is a rising star at Spellcrackers.com, where she finds the M' in magic—and that invariably leads to mischief, malice and—too often—murder. Spellcrackers.com is affiliated to the Witch Council, whose ancient tenets prohibit any contact with vampires. Genny also works as a volunteer at a clinic which treats victims of vampire attacks. Then there's her extra-curricular activity, extracting vulnerable fae lured by the local fang gangs. Genny certainly doesn't wants any closer...

Роман Сыозан Маклеод "Холодный поцелуй смерти" дарит читателю новую встречу с очаровательной Женевьевой Тейлор, феей-сидой, сотрудницей агентства "Античар" и по совместительству — своеобразным ящиком Пандоры как для самой себя, так и для окружающих. У Дженни снова куча бытовых и жилищных проблем, не говоря уже о специфических проблемах со здоровьем — в результате всех своих приключений она подхватила вирус вампиризма и теперь ей категорически противопоказано общество вампиров. Они ее чересчур возбуждают. Но все эти проблемы покажутся Дженни лишь мелкими неудобствами после того, как она обнаружит в пекарне мертвое тело своего хорошего знакомого. Убитого магией феи-сиды. А такая в Лондоне...
Роман Сьюзан Маклеод «Сладкий запах крови» — это блистательное сочетание фэнтезийного детектива, готического триллера и женского романа, настоящее открытие и безусловный бестселлер! Впервые на русском языке! В Лондоне уже давно, примерно с пятнадцатого века, люди, ведьмы, вампиры и прочая пестрая британская нежить договорились сосуществовать по принципу «живи и дай жить другим». И с тех пор пытаются этот договор соблюдать.
