Goodreads review by Heather K (dentist in my spare time) on September 02, 2025

Stars: 5 out of 5 I am not ashamed to say that the writing duo behind Ilona Andrews books is my favorite contemporary writers.

The main character was really interesting and I was relieved to read that this will be at least the first of two books. I......more
