That's on my wishlist so I'll be interested to hear what you think. I enjoyed Life After Life but hope that this one takes a different path.
I'm currently reading Harmony Black by Craig Schaefer. It was a Kindle First choice from last month. Harmony works for an under-the-radar US government department investigating supernatural crimes, she's a witch incidentally. I was hoping that this would be similar to Ben Aaronvitch' s Rivers Of London books but so far this is nastier and lacking in humour. There are plenty of positive reviews though, so perhaps it'll get better.
I'm looking forward to reading The Uncommon Reader by Alan Bennett next and might have to ditch Harmony for the Queen if she doesn't shape up.
