11. The Night Raven (Crow Investigations Book 1)

Meet Lydia Crow...

Lydia has always known she has no power, especially next to her infamous and more-than-slightly dodgy family. Which is why she carved her own life as a private investigator far away from London.

When a professional blunder forces her home, the head of the family calls in a favour, and Lydia finds herself investigating the disappearance of her cousin, Maddie.

Soon, Lydia is neck-deep in problems: her new flatmate is a homicidal ghost; the intriguing (but forbidden) DCI Fleet is acting in a distinctly unprofessional manner, and tensions between the old magical families are rising.

I'm just a short way into it, but so far I like it. Of course, it is the first book in a series.

By the way, the Fern Michaels book was a nice read. Not as complex as the Sisterhood but still has likeable characters and of course a great dog. Good summer read.l
