Summary

The fourth book in the New York Times bestselling 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.

Critic reviews

‘action packed … chick-lit with a supernatural twist.‘
The Times

‘A spellbinding blend of sharp wit and vivid imagination. A wonderfully fun romp through the supernatural world.’
Kelly Armstrong

‘Discovering a new series like this is like finding buried treasure.’

Generally a fun novel, but has a LOT of repetition.

And Nick has suddenly had a complete personality transformation. From subtle hints that he might have been a bit naughty in the past but now left those days behind, he has now been re-interpreted as a complete ****.

And why will someone not tell the narrator to correct her pronunciation of "Ceri"? There has been plenty of opportunity for someone to inform her. Why is she still getting it wrong? It's a hard "C", not soft. ("K", not "S"). I wince every time. Especially when the full name is said, which makes it 100% obvious the name is of Welsh origin and therefore should be pronounced with a "K" sound.

Not the best Hollows novel

I could read her books to the end of time she is a writer who knows how to take you not the World of the supernatural and she write about the characters so you want to get to know them! She also is able to write in such a way as to make you feel the emotions. The story line as many off shoots in it that makes it readable by people who want a good love story, horror mystery and so much more to the point it makes her a master story teller and the narration adds depth to it i am looking forward to reading and listening more to her books

Brilliant author knows how to take you into the world she write about

There were too many times that I was rolling my eyes at Rachel’s thoughts and actions, but I still mostly enjoyed this book. It’s an enjoyable series, but this one wasn’t as good for me.

3.5 stars - not my favourite in the series

The reviews of this book have been mixed but I really liked it. It's very different to the other books in the series though it still continues the story well. Jinks is the star of the book!

Kim Harrison has rather suddenly turned Nick into the devil incarnate without much warning but I don't mind that as I thought he was a weak character all along.

I didn't miss Ivy not being in a lot of the book and it was a relieve to not have to continue to go through the - will she, won't she bite Rachel! that does become tiresome. At last towards the end of the book we get a little movement on that side of the story.

Jinks takes this one

Rachel, Jenx and Ivy are such compelling complicated characters that they burrow into your heart before you realise it. You don't think Rachel's life could get more dangerous and complicated but each book takes her deeper and deeper into trouble.
Brilliant entertainment!
superb narration.
