Satisfying mash up of Roman/Greek myth, murder mystery, and urban fantasy.

This was a good mystery wrapped in a mythology/urban fantasy setting. Some of the Greek gods and goddesses are living in New York, their powers waning, and then the killings start.
Lots of fun with this. Engaging characters and plot; New York crime fighting with Ancient Greeks. Plus, you can Google the various settings of you want to see what they look like.
