Scientific consultant Penny Yee has barely drawn breath before Detective Inspector Tanner assigns her another suspicious death, with Matiu tagging along for the ride. That's fine as long as he stays outside the crime scene tape, but when one of Matiu's former cronies turns up dead, Penny wonders if her brother might be more than just an innocent bystander. While she's figuring that out, the entire universe conspires against her, with a cadaver going AWOL, her DNA sequencer spitting the dummy, and the rent due any day. Even the weather has it in for her. But that's not the worst of it; Penny's parents have practically announced her nuptials to Craig Tong!

Still spitting the taste of sand from his mouth, Matiu's back on the case with Penny, and wouldn't you know it, his big sister is in over her head again, not that she has a clue. There's a storm brewing dark through the heat-haze on the horizon, and Makere isn't the only one of Matiu's friends from another life dogging his steps. Is this all because of what Mārama was trying to tell him earlier? About his heritage?

Meanwhile, Cerberus is only making things worse by losing his rag every time they cross paths with the elusive killer. Can the dog taste the hot sour reek of something trying to push through the veil and run its tongue and teeth across this world? What's calling them? What has changed? Matiu should probably check that out, if only his probation officer would quit calling...

Satisfyingly terrifying

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 9, 2019

Verified Purchase

In this sequel to Hounds of the Underworld, we join forensic scientist Penny and her spiritually touched brother Matiu (a mere year later) as they are faced with solving a rising number of crimes connected to a series of missing women. However, the story is not simply a ‘Sherlock holmsesk whoduit’, as the authors take us beyond the scary things that lay in the dark into the scary things they lay inside us all.
Throughout the novel the authors’ strive for a balance between the protagonists (Penny and Matiu), but as a female reader I was once again on Penny’s side, not only because of her drive for logic in an illogical world, but because she too has to put up with the obstacles that society only puts in front of woman (her parents expectations of a dutiful daughter, being taken seriously in her field of forensic science, and dealing with her egotistical ex-boyfriend).
For lovers of Monster horror this is no Little Red Riding Hood reimagining, rather a ‘if Lovecraft and Stephen King co-authored’ a novel. Set in the Auckland of the future, an energy starved darker version of itself, the story manages to seamlessly combine a nod to culturally insightful supernatural elements with the clarity that only science can provide. I was glad to be reading during the daylight so that I could put the book down and assure myself that the escalating horror was held firm on the page, though that didn’t stop me from eagerly reading each horrific death, near death and never dead incident with my heart pounding and the taste of metal in my mouth.

Gut-punching science fiction action adventure

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 7, 2018

Verified Purchase

I’m a huge fan of Lee Murray and Dan Rabarts work. And Teeth of the Wolf is no different. I love both the characters, Penny Lee is so clever, and the science is written in a fun way that makes total sense. And Matiu’s a larger than life bad boy trying to make good, but is haunted by his past.
And in between the action are the niggling questions – what is the strange tattoo found on the wrist of a murder victim and the bog-body? Are the murders linked? And are there really monsters – or will Penny, like the famous Holmes, find a rational explanation for these disturbing events – set in a gritty near future that will knock your socks off.
I absolutely loved it. Can’t wait to read the next one!

Gripping crime noir

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 30, 2018

Verified Purchase

I enjoyed the first book and had to grab this one, too.
Penny and Matiu are at it again.
I love Penny’s science brain and astute observations. Matiu’s dubious past keeps haunting him, but it's that same past that gives him dodgy skills that may come in handy.
There’s a killer on the loose, and those creepy dark shadows keep encroaching reality. Only, they may not only be shadows… brrrr.
The stakes have been upped and our duo might crack under the pressure. This crime noir is a compelling read that will grasp you in its tentacles and not let you go until the last page.
I thoroughly recommend this book to fans of dark mystery who like well-crafted stories with punch.

Great follow up to the Hounds of the Underworld

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 3, 2018

Verified Purchase

This is the second book in the Path of Ra series and just as entertaining as the first. The near-future world (a New Zealand laid low by climate change and pollution - a future I pray isn't real, but fear might be) is skilfully rendered. The mystery is a fascinating interplay of noir and horror. I love the interplay between the two main characters: the OCD scientist Penny (Pandora) and her haunted and troubled brother Matiu. So nice to see characters that are multi-faceted - with elements of the characters dual Maori & Chinese heritages weaving through the story. While being dramatic and engaging, the story also had great touches of humour based on the fab interplay between the siblings.

Strong series, lively voices, great action.

Series continues strongly. Likeable characters, lively scenes, coherent plot. and the uniqueness of the New Zealand setting adds plenty of colour. Love it!

Fantastic, engrossing story! This cthulian horror sequel is better than the first book. I loved that Penny has come into her own as a strong character. And also enjoyed the fleshing out of the character's climate changed damaged world. Please, please be writing a 3rd book.

From "The Horror Fiction Review"

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 30, 2019

I went into this one somehow not having realized it was the second in a series (of which I’d also somehow missed the first!) but that quickly became very apparent as I read. Despite it being clear I was stepping into an ongoing story mid-stream, the characters were presented well enough to allow for mental filling-in of the blanks.

Scientist Pandora “Penny” Yee does some independent contract work for the local police, which lands her in the middle of some peculiar cases. Like this one, with bog bodies and mysterious tattoos and links to possible cults.

Given her life already has its peculiar aspects, mostly courtesy of her brother Matiu and his connections to underworldly and otherworldly elements, Penny’s pretty used to taking things in stride. Well, most things. She’s still at a loss whenever her parents are involved, especially when her parents are involved trying to play matchmaker at her. Or her erratic aunt goes off the rails in a family emergency.

Or Matiu, who’s got his own inexplicable events unfolding on the side, continues NOT TELLING HER STUFF. That was my biggest problem with the book (aside from the title never quite clicking for me for some reason), and it was purely interpersonal. A whole lot of trouble could’ve been avoided if they just TALKED. Kinda made me want to smack them both.

A fun read, but I recommend starting at the beginning if you can. Not necessary, but probably makes for a more satisfying experience overall. (important note, btw: it’s near-future, 2040s; took me a while to catch on. The first time I spotted a reference to the date, I thought it must be a typo; oops! my bad)
