Personally I think this was a good introduction to what Daniel Greene wants to achieve. I've read quite a few novellas, and so know not to expect expansive world building or character development. I think that it works in this case because by the end, you realise you don't need to be fully attached to these characters - they are only the set up. The police procedural in this was lacklustre, as there was no real detective process (probably because of length) which is slightly disappointing as I love both them, and fantasy. This could've been a great amalgamation. Despite this, it was easy to get through, read it in one sitting and left me intrigued. I don't think that this novella stands well on its own, I would've been disappointed but overall it has left me very interested in what's to come next from Greene!
