Wow. I have literally just finished reading this and I'm impressed.
In a way it reminded me of Richelle Mead's "Georgina Kincaid" series with the succubus and not wanting to sleep with the good guy but in other ways it didn't.
The storyline was both interesting and fun and I found myself needing to keep reading so I could find out who was killing the other succubi and I have to admit I wasn't disappointed--though I did guess half right.
I enjoyed it enough to keep reading the series and will look forward to the next book when it is released later in the year.
According to Wikipedia:
"A golem is an animated anthropomorphic being in Jewish folklore that is created entirely from inanimate matter (usually clay or mud) ... The most famous golem narrative involves Judah Loew ben Bezalel, the late-16th-century rabbi of Prague"
Modern readers might be more familiar with them from their inclusion in the later entries in Terry Pratchett's superlative Discworld series.
In this one, a Golem has been created and is terrorizing select parts of New York, with Montague and Strong called in to deal - reluctantly - with the threat it represents.
