For the reader of popular literature who has everything but would prefer to have it all in one book, bestselling author Vicki Pettersson has started a new series, “The Celestial Blues.”

The first book of the series, “The Taken,” will be released Tuesday, and the author will be discussing it at Mysterious Galaxy on Friday evening. The novel combines noir crime fiction, urban fantasy, romance and a good dose of rockabilly nostalgia in a fun concoction that will surely sate an eclectic audience.
