This certainly is not the first book in this collection but it didn't seem to matter as I figured out who was who pretty quickly. The heroine, Gin Blanco, is an assassin and a damn good one. Known as the Spider most fear her and those who don't should. Talked into attending a Museum event with her cousin, Gin is the subject of an assassination attempt but the wrong girl is killed. To top this off, the killers/thieves are determined to steal everything in the Museum and nearly get away with it.

A gripping novel that I certainly enjoyed. ( )

This book is definitely slower than previous books
Gin reflects on an assignment she helped Fletcher with regarding a giant
She spends too much time thinking about things with Owen while figuring out how to stop the heist
I was pissed at Owen in the last book, and that doesn’t improve much in this one. He’s still acting like an asshat.
There was too much catching up on what’s happened previously.
Not my favorite in the series, but I’ll continue because I want to know what else happens in Gin’s world ( )

What can I say? I'm hooked. Gin Blanco kicks ass. This was my first Elemental Assassin book, but definitly not the last! I couldn't put it down. ( )

Review closer to release date. ( )

Yes!! The series is finally headed back to the one I fell in love with!!! All the wonderful adventure and snarky humor and no more mopey angst. Ok there might still be a little angst but it is nothing like the last book!! We are back on track and I can't wait to jump into the next book!!

So, we are headed to a gala gotta go dress shopping right? That is the best way to start off the book cause Finn is hilarious!! And Gin is well, Gin!

The events of the book move at a pretty swift pace and once the main action goes down you will be on the edge of your seat!! Really clever story telling and great plot twists! I will say there are many times when Gin is not as quick on the uptake as her readers. Or maybe it is Ms Estep has a heavy hand with the foreshadowing. It doesn't really take away from the story just makes you want to shake Gin and say "Put the pieces together already!"

This book answers many questions and clears up several situations while at the same time creating more for the future! I have loads of questions for the next book and hope they get cleared up. I am especially thrown by the dress incident, you will see when you read, there has to be more to that. Gin always says she does not believe in coincidence.

I adore the dynamic between all the characters. They are all so well formed, they should be after seven other books! But they never cease to draw me into the story! Ms Estep has created a truly rich and endearing world. I am always eager to go back and visit!

I listen to the audiobooks and I adore Lauren Fortgang! She has such a way with the accents and bringing the characters to life. She is always a delight to my ears! ( )
