Jessica Winslow's first meeting with Detective John Boehler is less than auspicious; he arrests her and puts her in a cell for the criminally insane. After all, she was tearing through his city with a sword. What he did not know was that she was hunting vampires. That would have made all the difference. He's also determined to stop vampires, one in particular, a killer he let go.

They find themselves working together in a united cause, but things are more deadly than either had ever anticipated. Along with the heros and heroines from the past Nightslayer books, the duo has a mission that will change or end their lives. Perhaps a bit of both.

Action and romance keep the pages flying to a heart-stopping conclusion. The world of the Nightslayers develops and becomes more detailed in this book. Shades of grey add new depth and one of the most fascinating secondary characters to date plays a large role in this installment of the saga. You will be left wanting more.
