Overview

Keri Arthur is the New York Times best-selling author of the wildly popular Dark Angels novels.

When vampires begin turning up dead, Risa hunts for the killer in hopes the vampire council will lift the execution order on her life.

Editorial Reviews

Risa is a half-werewolf on a mission. To avenge her mother's murder, she makes a pact with Madeline Hunter, the venomous leader of the vampire council, who promises to help her track down the killer—but with a very steep price. Keri's sexy, action-packed Dark Angels series kicks it up another notch.

Publishers Weekly

Arthur ratchets up the intrigue while rounding out characters’ personalities in this powerful sequel to Sept. 2011’s Darkness Unbound. Risa Jones, half werewolf and half Aedh, is driven by her father, a rogue supernatural, to find the keys he forged to the gates of hell. This task threatens the powerful vampire council, which will only let Risa live if she figures out why two vampires have begun aging. As she tries to solve these puzzles, she increasingly relies on Azriel, the inscrutable reaper assigned to help her safeguard the keys. His revelations and growing human qualities add depth, humor, and frustration; she finds his messages mixed but readers assume at some point they’ll get a room. Arthur writes powerfully when describing the accoutrements of Risa’s magic, particularly her bonding with a sword, and Risa’s failed attempts to find the keys result in a stunning cliffhanger.
