Ritual Magic: A Novel of the Lupi (A Novel of the Lupi, #10)

by Eileen Wilks

In Eileen Wilks’s new Novel of the Lupi, FBI agent Lily Yu is about to confront a power even darker than magic…
 
On her 57th birthday, Lily’s mother suddenly loses all memory beyond the age of twelve. Lily knows her mother was attacked by something more than magic. More . . . and darker.

When Lily and Rule discover that others suffered the same, mysterious loss—at the same time on the same night—their investigation into the darkness begins. Joining them is someone Lily never thought she’d see again: Al Drummond, who once tried to destroy her. He also happens to be dead. But the mysterious attacks were caused by a power strong enough to affect matters beyond the world of the living.

With some victims losing years of memory and others their lives, Lily must discover what on earth—or beyond—connects them.

Took me a while to get into this book. It has been a while since I read the last book and couldn't remember all the players and exactly where we were in the story. Once I got into it, it was pretty good. Most of the story revolves around Rule and Lily and Lily's family. We start the story off from Lily's mom's POV. She thinks she is a twelve year old girl. She's lost all of her memory since then. We get to see a different side to Julia Yu and also Edward Yu, Lily's father. We also get to see Toby playing with Julia while Julia thinks like a child. It was great.

This is a long book, but there are a lot of pieces to the story. It takes a long time for Lily to figure out the investigation. Her mother isn't the only one who lost some of her memories, but even with really large numbers of victims, it takes them a while to figure out the connection.

All of this is going on just days before Lily's and Rule's scheduled wedding.
