Product Description:
MacKayla Lane’s life is good. She has great friends, a decent job, and a car that breaks down only every other week or so. In other words, she’s your perfectly ordinary twenty-first-century woman. Or so she thinks…until something extraordinary happens.
When her sister is murdered, leaving a single clue to her death–a cryptic message on Mac’s cell phone–Mac journeys to Ireland in search of answers. The quest to find her sister’s killer draws her into a shadowy realm where nothing is as it seems, where good and evil wear the same treacherously seductive mask. She is soon faced with an even greater challenge: staying alive long enough to learn how to handle a power she had no idea she possessed–a gift that allows her to see beyond the world of man, into the dangerous realm of the Fae….
As Mac delves deeper into the mystery of her sister’s death, her every move is shadowed by the dark, mysterious Jericho, a man with no past and only mockery for a future. As she begins to close in on the truth, the ruthless Vlane–an alpha Fae who makes sex an addiction for human women–closes in on her. And as the boundary between worlds begins to crumble, Mac’s true mission becomes clear: find the elusive Sinsar Dubh before someone else claims the all-powerful Dark Book–because whoever gets to it first holds nothing less than complete control of the very fabric of both worlds in their hands….

I can't tell you how much I loved this book...quick paced, you'll find it hard to put down. It's dark, entertaining, scarey and Jericho will begin to haunt you into trying to figure out just what he is. I find the heroine endearing. She is young and naive...but she has balls leaving her safe little world to persue her sister's killer in a foreign land. You gotta admire her courage and her journey. This book is the tip of the iceberg and introduces us to a world so terrifying you'll be chilled to the bone. As someone who has read four of the series I got to tell you that Mac evolves and grows up into a kicka-s character you've got to admire..and her relationship with the mysterious Jericho is hot, frustrating and will have you obsessing about in blogs all over the internet!

I really enjoyed this book, and was compelled to buy the next two. The books do read like chapters. You can't quite believe they end where they do.

I didn't know it was a series, so it was quite a shock to be left in the middle of everything...no answers to all the questions the book laid out. I was not a happy reader.

I love Karen Marie Moning's writing and have read all her books. However, if a story line is going to continue with cliff hangers at the end of each of the books, there should be a warning in bold print on the front page about the ongoing story line!!! Five books before we receive the answers to questions asked in the first book is ridiculous!!! I have quit reading other authors who tried this tact to get their books sold. I hate to think I will have to give up Ms. Moning, but I will if this is how she plans to write in the future.
