Synopsis
My name's Markowski. I carry a badge. Also, a crucifix, some wooden stakes, a big vial of holy water, and a 9mm Beretta loaded with silver bullets. A series of seemingly motiveless murders of supernatural creatures points to a vigilante targeting the supe community. Markowski wouldn't normally have much of a problem with that, but his daughter may be next on the killer's list... File Under: Urban Fantasy [ Unnatural Law | Thicker Than Water | The Bite Stuff | Duty Calls ] e-book ISBN: 978-0-85766-137-1

What Gustainis does really well is integrating the Supes into the gritty reality of Scranton.

This novel was non-stop Paranormal cop drama/action. From the very first page, I was sucked right back into the author's gritty world.

All Things Urban Fantasy | 8 May 2012
Neither as hard-boiled as most police procedurals, nor as arcane as pure urban fantasy, EVIL DARK is a blend that does justice to both genres without taking either too seriously.

... Gustainis, with Markowski as a guide, truly sucked me into this unique world of fantastical creatures and police procedural.

Gripping hardly covers it. I simply couldn’t put the book down until I’d finished it.

Its writing and tone of voice hooked me from the first page and by the end of the book I was disappointed that it was over so soon...

I missed my good old friend the chapter as I think it affected the pacing of the novel. The story seemed to move around a lot...I’m not really sure what the point of this was...

Mel's Random Reviews | 21 May 2012
This series is the very definition of Urban Fantasy meets film noir with a dollop of dry humour on the side.

Falcata Times | 3 May 2012
It has everything a reader could want, beautiful women, treacherous twists and when backed with Justin’s tongue in cheek style alongside a cracking lead character, it’s a tale of absolute Urban Fantasy delight.
