About this ebook

All the creatures of the night gather in "the Hollows" of Cincinnati, to hide, to prowl, to party ... and to feed.

Vampires rule the darkness in a predator-eat-predator world rife with dangers beyond imagining -- and it’s Rachel Morgan's job to keep that world civilized.

A bounty hunter and witch with serious sex appeal and an attitude, she'll bring 'em back alive, dead ... or undead.

Ratings and reviews

This book and part two found it way to me fate works in wierd ways as now I'm spending big $$ to download the rest of the series whish it was cheaper but I'm as addicted to this books as a shadow is to vamp saliva I crave more and more amazing job ms Harrison is an amazing writer this series will not disappoint and for those hoping for sex action book three is ur goodie

There were more than a couple English slip-ups throughout the book. The author's general style develops as the story does. Having finished this one, I believe that the author shows enough potential, and has developed interesting enough characters, as to warrant the continuation of the series. The characters and the world are pretty well developed. There were a couple points where I was feeling the story stretched, but it all came back together well. In contrast to The Dresden Files, the protagonist is a bit more helpless, though both main characters are magic-users. This is an interesting difference. Harry gets himself into all kinds of trouble even given his proclivity for combat magic, but Rachel Morgan feels like she's going to get herself killed. I'm interested to see how the rest of the series develops this character, and whether she will stand on her own or only with the help of her companions.

I loved this book. Originally i read the third one first because i didnt know it was a part of a series but when i found out i had to have them all. anyway, this book drew me in so fast and this entire new world was unlike any other world i have previously dipped in.
