Umbrate by A.D Jones.
Welcome to Dalton
Home to Humans, Dwarves, Elves and the shadowy Umbral Populace. Detective Vanic Bradley works hard to keep the peace, coming down hard on the criminal underbelly of the city. After putting his life on the line multiple times in recent weeks, all he wanted was a day off work to spend time with his son, and re-evaluate his place in the world - but forces beyond his control have other ideas. For reasons unknown, he will find himself in a race against time as two hundred innocent citizens become collateral damage in a murderous plot centred around him.
I really enjoyed this book. Loved the bloody keys picture at the start of each chapter. Gripping and twisty and tense. I did like Vanic and Melda. I was rooting for him. I do hope there is more to come. 5*.
