Midnight Labyrinth: An Elemental Legacy Novel

Written by Elizabeth Hunter

Narrated by Sean William Doyle

He's one human caught in a tangled maze of theft, politics, magic, and blood. In other words, it's just another night.

Benjamin Vecchio escaped a chaotic childhood and grew to adulthood under the protection and training of one of the Elemental world's most feared vampire assassins. He's traveled the world and battled immortal enemies.

But everyone has to go home sometime.

New York means new opportunities and allies for Ben and his vampire partner, Tenzin. It also means new politics and new threats. Their antiquities business is taking off, and their client list is growing. When Ben is challenged to find a painting lost since the second world war, he jumps at the chance. This job will keep him closer to home, but it might just land him in hot water with the insular clan of earth vampires who run Manhattan.

Tenzin knew the painting would be trouble before she laid eyes on it, but she can't deny the challenge intrigues her. Human laws mean little to a vampire with a few millennia behind her, and Tenzin misses the rush of taking what isn't hers.

But nothing is more dangerous than a human with half the story, and Ben and Tenzin might end up risking their reputations and their lives before they escape the Midnight Labyrinth.

Reviews for Midnight Labyrinth

[madison_fairbanks · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Fate Actually by Elizabeth Hunter2nd book in the Moonstone Cove series. Spinoff of the Glimmer Lake series. Paranormal women’s fiction with mystery and romance. Best read as part of the series. Toni Dusi owns a local car shop in the small town of Moonstone Cove. She is also an Empath with a bit of a sarcastic edge. The feelings of everyone around her are making Toni a bit crazy but she puts her skills to use when a body is found in the family winery. Her empathy can detect when a person is lying, so Toni uses that, with the help of her friends Katherine and Megan to poke around. The investigation will help keep her mind off the fact that she is pregnant at 41 and still needs to make all kinds of life decisions. A bit more amusing that the previous books. I really liked Toni and her down to earth attitude. Her empathy causes some major emotional swings and the support of her friends and Henry is precious and heartwarming. The trio of women use their skills to solve the crime and it’s a delightful bumbling success. I love their friendship, support and dedication to family and friends. Can’t wait to read the next book in the series.

Series Info/Source: This is the second book in the Moonstone Cove series. I borrowed a copy of this book through Kindle Unlimited to read.Story (4/5): This story features the same trio of women that was in the last book, but focuses on Toni this time. The story involves a murder of a winery owner who competes with Toni’s family’s winery in the region. As more people start getting hurt, Tony and crew have to unravel the mystery of what is going on before people start blaming her family for the tragedies. I didn’t like it quite as much as the first book in the series but it was still a fun fast-paced read with a good mystery, some neat psychic abilities woven in, and a bit of a love story as well.Characters (4/5): I enjoyed Toni but she is the hardest character of this trio for me to relate to. I thought her love interest, Henry, was really well done. I also enjoyed Toni’s huge family and all the dynamics there. I continue to enjoy the theme of friendship throughout these books as well.Setting (4/5): I continue to really enjoy the Moonstone Cove setting. It’s a wonderful small college town. This book features more on the vineyards outside of the town and discusses a “big city” vision to make Moonstone Cove more of a wealthy person’s getaway. There are some great town dynamics here and I am in love with this small town.Writing Style (4/5): I really enjoy Hunter’s writing style. This was a fun, easy to read book that I had a lot of trouble putting down. I enjoyed the mystery, the setting, and the characters. I continue to really enjoy Hunter’s books and she’s quickly becoming a go-to author for me. I look forward to the next Moonstone Cove book and plan on reading other series from her as well.My Summary (4/5): Overall I really enjoyed this book, it was a fun and quick read. Everything is very well balanced here; great mystery, psychic powers, endearing characters, and a wonderful location. I would recommend this series to those who enjoy paranormal mysteries with some romance. This does focus on older women (in their 40’s) and there is more focus on families and friendships than in a lot of other paranormal series. I really enjoy the change of pace from your typical UF/paranormal book and definitely plan on reading more of Hutner’s books in the future.
