About this eBook

Some know her as Meredith Nic Essus, princess of faerie. Others as Merry Gentry, LA private eye. In the fey and mortal realms alike, her life is the stuff of royal intrigue and celebrity drama.
Among her own kind, she has confronted enemies, endured the treachery and malevolence of her kith and kin, and honoured her duty to conceive a royal heir...all so she could claim a throne. But now she's turned her back on court and crown in favour of exile in the human world.
However, while she may have rejected the throne, she cannot abandon her people. Someone is killing the fey. The LAPD are baffled and Merry is worried: her kind are not easily captured or killed. At least not by mortals. And it's not just these murders that concern her. It appears mortals who she once healed with magic are now able to perform miracles themselves - a phenomenon that's wreaking havoc on relations between man and fey and provoking suspicions of forbidden powers.
So much for leaving blood and politics behind her. Merry had dreamed of a quiet life, but evil knows no borders and it seems nobody lives forever - not even the immortal...

Ratings and reviews

I like the series and because the first couple book lay down the story line I always read the next book because you want to know how it ends. But by the time this book the character descriptions are keep repeating and it's quite annoying.. we know how each person looks like don't need a reminder. It gets quite dragging. Rather more story should happen. The sex scenes are good but maybe too much. Would be good more of the detective stuff between sex episodes. I like the Anita Blake story better.

Fabulous as usual.....just to state the obvious.

I love this book series
