Synopsis

This is the fourth and latest instalment of the urban fantasy-thriller series starring sexy bounty hunter and witch, Rachel Morgan. There's no rest for the wicked, even when the taint on your soul isn't your fault. It would be wise for witch and bounty hunter, Rachel Morgan, to keep a low profile right now. Her new reputation for the dark arts has piqued the interest of Cincinnati's night-prowlers, who despise her and long to bring an end to her interference, one way or another. Nevertheless, Rachel must risk exposure. Her ex-boyfriend, Nick, has stolen a priceless Were artefact, and, as tempting as it may be to let the Weres him apart, Rachel feels obliged to attempt a rescue. But other sinister forces also covet the relic Nick has hidden. Some, who desire it so badly, they will take the city - and everyone in it - apart to wield its frightening power.

Review

Do read this series in order, as the development of the characters and situations are so good.

This is the fourth in Rachel's adventures and this time its werewolves who are the problem, plus the ongoing emotional balances between her friends and lovers, and the threats from the after-life.

Kim Harrison is to be applauded I think for keeping the characters becoming more interesting with each book - more facts from their various pasts explain their motivation, and stereotypes are avoided.

How many more can there be - I hope quite a few.
