In the wake of a brutal war, the archangel Raphael and his hunter consort, Elena, are dealing with the treacherously shifting tides of archangelic politics and the people of a battered but not broken city. The last thing their city needs is more death, especially a death that bears the eerie signature of an insane enemy archangel who cannot—should not—be walking the streets.
This hunt must be undertaken with stealth and without alerting their people. It must be handled by those who can become shadows themselves. Ash is a gifted tracker and a woman cursed with the ability to sense the secrets of anyone she touches. But there's one man she knows all too well without a single instant of skin contact: Janvier, the dangerously sexy Cajun vampire who has fascinated and infuriated her for years. Now, as they track down a merciless killer, their cat-and-mouse game of flirtation and provocation has turned into a profound one of the heart. And this time, it is Ash's secret, dark and terrible, that threatens to destroy them both. Contains mature themes.

“Fans of Singh’s outstanding Guild Hunter series are again treated to a tale focusing on two characters who have been begging for their own book. Guild Hunter Ashwini and the annoying but sexy vampire Janvier have been tantalizing readers with hints of their unusual courtship throughout this series. Creating three-dimensional, believable characters who jump off the page is a tremendous skill, and Singh is a true master. Awesome as always!”

“The apocalypse takes a backseat to more traditional romance in the seventh Guild Hunters paranormal…The big revelation at the halfway mark speeds up the pacing, better serves the leads, and allows the book to reach the level of previous installments.”
— Publishers WeeklyAs always Justine Eyre brings to life these character so much. I love that she has made all of the characters have such distinct voices that even when they are clearing their throat I know which character is which. Totally and completely amazing.
