inulro61. Carter and Lovecraft by Jonathan L Howard
Disclaimer: I vaguely know the author. He's local and I have spent a couple evenings in the pub in his company.
A New York cop turned PI inherits a bookshop in Providence, RI whose sole employee is a descent of HP Lovecraft. Weirdness ensues. It's like he wrote a book with my name on it.
Even so, this book is amazing! The dialogue is witty, I liked the characters, the prose is delightful and the plotting is - just wow. A really interesting and new take on the Mythos. Cannot recommend this highly enough.
