Night Child (OSI #1) 
Enter the night world of the OSI... OCCULT SPECIAL INVESTIGATOR
Tess Corday, Occult Special Investigator for Vancouver's Mystical Crime Lab, is used to seeing dead vampires. But there's nothing ordinary about this case. Not the lab results on the cause of death. Not the teenage girl living at the address found in the vamp's pocket, who may well be in thrall to a demon. And certainly not Lucian Agrado, the necromancer who is liaison to the vampire community. Agrado is supposed to be part of the solution, but Tess suspects he might be part of the problem.
Soon she finds herself in the middle of a paranormal conspiracy that will change her life forever... and possibly end it.
Well, it's not very often I feel like an intellectual midget but this book managed to do just that. I'm actually disappointed cause the premise really grabbed my attention - I thought it would be something like a cross between CSI and Moonlight. Instead, I got lost in the "geekspeak". Tess is a mage. She investigates paranormal crimes with her partner, a telepath. They become caught up in a confusing case involving vampires, demons, and necromancers. Tess also has flashbacks to the death of a

Tess, an Occult Special Investigator, Level 1 is at a very clean scene with a dead vampire. Barely any clues to follow. On top of that, she's got to keep her nose down and go by the book on this one - she's way too old to still be a Level 1, so it's either a promotion or getting let go - and her boss seems to have it out for her. It doesn't help that Meg, the girl tangled up in all of this, reminds Tess too much of her past.There were definitely some confusing plot points in this, a few times

In the mystery respect, it is interesting; enough clues are revealed to the reader that keeps you guessing and wanting to find out more.

This UF has its charms and its downfalls and, weirdly enough, they are the same. -I loved the procedural and at the same time hated it when it went over the top. -I loved the mix of science and magic, but was confused by it. -The relationship among characters was its driving point, but some of them didn't have sense. Lucian and Tess were a WTF? As in "I don't understand what's going on and how". The world-building is intriguing and nicely paced. I didn't get any infodump sensation (there wereWell, it's not very often I feel like an intellectual midget but this book managed to do just that.
