Shadows in the Starlight

Shadows in the Starlight, Elaine Cunningham. A worthy sequel to Shadows in the Darkness, this opens with changeling Gwen taking another missing person's case - that of a housewife who doesn't seem to age. Once again, it's more mystery than magic, though there are snatches of Elf rules and nearly enough espionage to float a middling Clancy.  Cunningham's really doling out the otherworld elements in small doses, and I admire her restraint - it offers a satisfying sense of anticipation.  Just like the last book, the setting and actions are great neo-noir; I'll look forward to reading the next entry.
