Voodoo Shanghai

“Voodoo Shanghai is a lot of fun. It’s a terrific, fast-paced read with a number of surprising twists, a welcome blast of pure reading pleasure. . . . But it’s also much more than that. Through Kincaid Strange, Charish chronicles realistic social and personal concerns in a vivid and often disarming manner. Not only does Kincaid have to navigate workplace politics, and the fallout of a relationship with a coworker, she is subject to the same sexist world that is so familiar (how she handles a grabby dude-bro poltergeist at Sea-Tac will have readers cheering). But it goes deeper than that. At the heart of the novels is the relationship between the ghosts and humans, a stark examination of societal exclusion and segregation. . . . It’s a thrilling balancing act, and one which Charish pulls off with aplomb.” —Robert J. Wiersema, Toronto Star
