Gabi and Julius are co-leading the Special Investigations
dept and still hunting for the betrayer vampire Caspian and his pregnant Dark
Magus partner Mariska. An uneasy feeling of dread has fallen over the city as
more demons seem intent on crossing the barrier, and the newly formed alliances
placed in positions of security might not be ready to handle them yet. The
degree of action and danger jump up a notch when someone very near to Gabi is
compromised. It's now up to Gabi and those closest to her to deal with the
situation, truces, alliances, secrets and traitors for once and all.
It is an absolute shame to see this series come to an end. I
feel as though I have been with the characters through their successes and
heartaches, their newfound confidence and their rejections; and loved every minute
of it. I will miss our heroine, but perhaps now she can take some time off from
saving the world and spend some quality time with Julius and Razor. I liked
that we got a bit more of a glimpse into Gabi's family and how they have faced
all that has happened. Many questions from the series were tied up, but true to
Ms. Hannaford's style she leaves us with a little something, and we leave her
with a cry of " and then?" The characters have stayed true to personality
but grown in substance, and the plot has followed a logical progression. The
writing is fluid and has matured throughout the series, and good editing makes
it comfortable to read.
While some may feel that the book was tied up too neatly or
quickly I thoroughly enjoyed it, and can't wait for the next series to make its
appearance.
