The latest mission for Jaz and Vayl have them infiltrating the vampire Trust. But someone has overthrown the regime. In a mysterious rise in power and abilities, the new leader of the Trust shares a dark past with Vayl. And she has her eyes set on Vayl as her new partner. Meanwhile, Jaz still needs to deal with the voices in her head and hunt down the evil vampire Samos.

Rardin does a great job with character development throughout the series. Jaz and her boss have gone through a lot and their relationship is certainly changing. It’s been a long time since I read the earlier books, and I was still able to jump into the story and not feel lost. But one of my favorite things about this series is the character interactions. Jaz is a fantastic character with plenty of humor to diffuse the scenes of violence and danger. The physical attraction and tension between Jaz and Vayl is steamy and frustrating.

This latest installment doesn’t fall short on the plot and suspense either. The Trust seems to be full of killers and traitors that will do anything to gain power. For action-packed intrigue with loads of blood-suckers, shapeshifters, and other things that go bump in the night, don’t miss this spy novel with bite.

* PS: For those of you with sharp eyes, you’ll notice that the cover blurb is from yours truly, talking about the first book in the series! ( )

Really good series - one of those stand out ones where the words are clever and funny and the action on edge and the romance tantalizing without being too much. I've bought the next book because I can't bear to wait. ( )

I loved this book, it was a whole turn around for the Jaz and Vahl 'look but don't touch attitude', that I am used to. I can't wait for the next book to see what becomes of them, and if Jaz ever does chose to become a Vampire. Dave finally pulled through his turmoil, and I am anxious to see if he stays with the group. Cassandra and David seem to be off to a great start; I wonder what will become of their relationship in the future. Cole continues to test his limit was Vahl, which leads to a very humurous collection in this already page turning series. I am very excited about the next book, and I have about 10 days to wait. ( )

Blurb From Book:
Jaz Parks here. My latest mission has taken me to the ancient Greek city of Patras; but instead of soaking up its splendor, I'm here to infiltrate a Vampere Trust. Only two vamps have ever escaped the tightly bound communities and lived to tell the tale: Edward "The Raptor"Samos, the most reviled criminal mastermind in recent memory, and Vayl, the CIA's number one assassin who also happens to be my boss.
The Raptor is trying to take over Vayl's former Trust. Unfortunately the Trust's new leader has her own plans.
This job is going to be the death of me.

I just love this series. Jaz is strong and independent with a smart mouth. It is truly the snarky comments that keep me in love with the character. Just when things seem to be bad, they get worse and Jaz, barely keeping it together this time, manages to get the bad guys in the end. ( )

Jaz, Dave & Vayl head back to Vayl's old Trust (vamp clan) where the influence of old friends, enemies and the underhand workings of a vamp desperate to secure her power supply a rich blend of personal and practical problems for our heroes. This book takes us much deeper into the supernatural, where the others have been essentially CIA gigs with a partially "other" cast, this is right in the thick of supernatural drama. Rardin again manages to balance the paranormal aspect with the politics and schemeing and and stuff getting shot which makes this series so enjoyable. ( )
