I actually really enjoyed this book because of the side we see of Henry. I'm not saying he is looked over in other books, but in this book particularly we learn a lot about him personally and it's brilliant to see.
Like every book in this series, the relationships (blooming and glooming) are absolutely brilliant, plus the ghost! It was awesome!

This rounds out the series by Tanya Huff and is a good concluding story. Not my favorite but still has interesting aspects to it.

I liked that the 'case' wasn't a supernatural one even though there were two vampires investigating it. A good follow up to what seemed like the end, though I believe this is the last one with Vicki in.

Very interesting about the organ legging or as I've always heard it call organ harvesting. But it was too tame compared to the last 2 books. All in all a great series I'd recommend to any urban fantasy readers.

Original 4 Stars.
Re-read 2.5 Stars.
My memory was kinder than reality.
Bloody hell, what a mess.
The idea might have started with something original, but then.. yep, we've been here many times before, and wished we hadn't.
Vicki is no longer likeable, no longer a 'tough chick'. Now she's a vampire. Sexy, slinky, fast, nasty.
Poor Mikey.
I don't like my Mikey when he's with her. Whiny, weak, frustrating.
His part of the story, when he's out on his own, is great. A nice P.I. mystery, with subtle sexiness, hinting at romance, but never making it the point. Tough, street smart, while still being the good guy. Very likeable.
Henry. Hmm. I'm biased, I just don't like vamps anymore.
But I have to confess, without Vicki in the dialogue, he's interesting again, with a good side mystery story.
Tony the street kid, had so much potential from his previous appearances in the first 2 books, but just doesn't live up to it.
Victory Nelson is dead. She no longer exists, and this new chick wearing her story is just not a worthy replacement.
It's no surprise this is her last book.
