About this ebook

Jane Yellowrock has her hands full in the latest novel in the New York Times bestselling series that captures “the essence of urban fantasy” (SF Site).
 
Slaying vampires is child’s play for skinwalker Jane Yellowrock. But handling the complicated politics of New Orleans’ supernatural players is another story...
 
Jane is keeping the peace between visiting groups of witches and vamps in the city, but then trouble comes knocking on her doorstep. When her house is magically attacked, the wild chase to find her assailants unearths a mystery that has literally been buried deep.
 
A missing master vampire, presumed long deceased, is found chained in a pit...undead, raving mad, and in the company of two human bodies. Now it’s up to Jane to find out who kept the vampire hidden for so long and why, because the incident could tip already high supernatural tensions to an all-out arcane war.

Ratings and reviews

Faith Hunter in her usual excellent form, and we see a slight move in focus in this book, concentrating more on the witches than the fangheads (oops, sorry, mithrans). Interesting final few paragraphs, too. I only started reading these books about 18 months ago, as I'm generally not a fan of 1st person fiction, but Hunter's character-building and development, plus the action-packed storylines are fairly addictive and this series shows no signs of getting stale yet. The wait for the next book will be too long.

I love this action packed amazing fantasy jane at her best and witches and vampires. Keep her stories coming!

Faith Hunter is so freaking awesome!!
