About this listen
>She keeps her head down and cleans up messes. When the body count starts rising, will trying to make a living get her flushed?
Julia Xero is stuck in survival mode. After losing the only person she loved, the introverted orphan longs to escape her toxic employment for the zen of crime and trauma scene decontamination. But when she lands her dream job and is called to a bloody rooftop with a decapitated corpse, she’s horrified to come face to face with an otherworldly shark-toothed assassin.
Furious to learn she’s been enlisted by a clandestine race of beings against her will, Julia’s dismay fountains when she finds out they implanted her with a neck bomb to ensure her lips stay tightly sealed. Fit to be tied, and her thunderous confrontation with her boss hitting a deadend, the stubborn young woman begins plotting ways to leave the energy-powered entities in her dust.
Can she outwit an ancient civilization before her carotid goes boom?
The Secret Humankind is the gritty first book in The Discoveries of Julia Xero urban fantasy thriller series. If you like fish-out-of-water heroines, complex worlds, and dark truths, then you’ll love Gloria Oliver’s multi-faceted mystery.

Fantastic
Now this was good, loved the twists and altogether fun aspect of the story. Yes there were the darker parts, and lots of unanswered questions but i will be re-going through this book. Excellent.

Great New Series
When Julia Xero takes a new job as a crime scene cleaner, she never expected it to put her life in danger.
The author has put together a great cast of characters woven into an engaging plot that keeps the reader guessing.
I'd recommend reading the short story prequels in addition to this book which are both excellent and provide some interesting back story for some of the characters. I'd also highly recommend book 2 in the series.
Excellent narration throughout
