# 23 Black Canary and Zatanna: Bloodspell by Paul Dini, Joe Quinones

Zatanna is helping Black Canary deal with a bloodspell she agreed to while she was undercover working a case. Intermixed throughout the story line is when they first met and when Zatanna first joined the Justice League. I enjoyed the story and characters and hopefully there will be more of these. What I didn't like was I first thought this would be a long story but almost a third of the book was either sketch art for the book or the dialogue reprinted without the art panels.

#24 Concealed in Death by J.D. Robb

I find it hard to believe that I read all the books in this series but at this point the cases become a blur but the characters are what is really important to this series. The murder is a case of twelve girls remains found in a wall in a building that Roarke bought to renovate. The suspect list is fairly small and until someone bolts near the end the story gets wrapped up. I have a feeling that one of the foster kids might show up later in the series. There was one bit that felt a bit of too much of a coincidence but it does give the reader some back story on Mavis so I think all is forgiven on that part.   An now to wait for the fall for the next book.
