Liz Larson is fairy touched, a revel Dancer struggling with an addiction to fairy food and the lure of her own memories. When a strange elf turns up with an old photo and a new mission, Liz has only one answer for the uptight agent. No way. Never again.
Marcus Bramble is not interested in babysitting a human junkie, but a series of ghastly murders has spread terror across the Fey lands. Only the fairies know what's going on, and only one person can get the little devils to talk. Unfortunately, Liz has no interest in cooperating... until the investigation points to her old partner.
Until Lockland Sheen is involved.
Now the elvin agent and the human Dancer set out to save both their worlds. Unfortunately, the more they rely on Liz’s tie to the fairies, the closer she inches toward the madness that lurks behind her fantasies.
A Moth In Darkness The Changeling Race Book 1 eBook Frances Pauli
Liz is one of three women to create the first doorway for the fey to cross into our world. For a while she worked at the Embassy tending to fey/human relations. But she left the job after something happened with her partner, and now she ushers fey into the world at a place not so different of feel than a tram station. Liz seems to be trying to escape, or maybe remember, something inside herself as she goes with the fairies who call to her every night into the Middle World. Here is where she eats their snacks and drinks their juices, and dances the night away. But, now the agent friend that Liz trained, Bev, shows up with a warning that her name is being tossed around the Embassy and something is a buzz... There's a rogue elf killing other elves and Liz is drawn back into the service of the Embassy because of who it is. Maybe her addiction to the fairy dancing will help with the case, or maybe not... Will her new temporary partner go with his instincts or follow orders?I have to say the world created here is really a great one full of Fey of all kinds; elves, pixies, fairies, trolls, and gnomes. The connection between the fey world and human on is neat with the portals that takes an ability and power to help open the doorway, on both sides. Now the fey come to our world openly, but they are not always accepted here. And vice versa.
But the fairies where an attraction to me. I liked how they came to Liz every night as they loved the way she danced. But they left me wondering if there wasn't more behind that visiting than I was aware of. And they always seemed adorable with the way they looked. And there is one fairy in particular I'm curious about.
I liked the way I got the story of Liz and her past partner through out the book. I wanted to get more of that connection and see them together, but he is to be dead. We learn of Liz and her past partner through her memories and it is a wonderful way to bring you to love a character that's not physically present in the story. Then we have a new friendship that starts to bloom with her new temporary partner as the characters start to relate and care for each other.
We do get a few different view points in the book as the different characters learn different pieces of the puzzle, and it adds to the anxiety you start to feel for the characters and the situation they are in. I left the book wanting more. I'm hoping there is a second book with these characters as I want to follow the story line further and see what happens. Really a fun fey-magic mystery read!

A Moth In Darkness The Changeling Race Book 1 eBook Frances Pauli Reviews
I loved this book. I can't wait for the sequel. It isn't light and happy dancing fairies and kittens. It's dark urban fantasy. The fey are alien, but still human in so many ways. They present themselves as perfect, but they're flawed. Elizabeth retreats into the revels as a way to escape the truth she discovered. Just go read it. It's a great book.
Frances Pauli does something in 207 pages that some fantasy authors can't do in 500 and that is layout not one, but two complex worlds, with all the trimmings. She lays out multiple characters that you truly feel attached to midway through. I really enjoyed this book a lot as it shows just how awesome of a storyteller Frances Pauli is. There is so much going on in two vastly different worlds, with several very different characters but there is never once that I felt confused, left behind or short changed by any of it. The flow of the book runs smoothly from start to finish and I found myself fully immersed in the story. I love a story that pulls me in and puts me right beside the characters. I love feeling as if I'm sharing in their adventure and this book truly did that for me. Frances Pauli is one of my all time favorite storytellers and I'm very excited to follow anything and everything this talented author puts out there!
Once upon a time a witch inadvertently stumbled into the land of the Fey and a world of possibilities opened including meeting the Elf of her dreams, but fairytales don't always have happy endings, and when her Fey left he took her heart and her dreams with her and left her A Moth in Darkness.
Frances Pauli takes us on an imaginary journey to her interpretation of Fey/Human realms, she does this with a story line straight out of an adult fairytale turned horror story. She adds quite a mystery to solve as well as she spins her fantastic tale with characters you only meet in fables, myths and lore and she brings them in a new light as she mixes them with humanity. She does this with very earthlike narrative so the story flows smoothly and even we lowly human type beings can easily understand and follow her story. She gives us characters that are as unique as her tale, and equally interesting and imperative to the telling of her story with humans, elves, gnomes and especially her fairies. Her heroine is a strong female character that's not afraid to show her weaknesses but also doesn't let those weaknesses stop her from aiding her hero, a hero who plays a very minimal role in the tale but is nonetheless very important to both the outcome of the story and the happiness of the heroine.
From the first paragraph the author had me enthralled by giving only bits and pieces at a time, by weaving a mystery into the plot and making it almost impossible for me to put the book down until I had the answers to all my questions. And even as I finished the book in one sitting I still had more questions and am very certain that Ms. Pauli isn't done with this particular cast of characters and their stories as I found a definite cliff-hanger at the end.
So if this kind of fantasy tale/mystery/suspense romance floats your paranormal boat, by all means All-Aboard. Thank you, Ms. Pauli for one heck of a trip.
