Ruling by fear, the new master vampire is throwing her fangs and strength around. It is up to Rachel and her friends to save the city from itself again. Okay, this is the Rachel I know and love.

In life, in love, in anything. In a world where magicians can manipulate shadows, thieves are highly sought after for stealing magical books and works. Charlie used to be one of them until she was almost killed. Now she is bartending in a local dive bar, trying to live a reformed life. Until walking home late one night, she witnesses a murder which drags her back into the world full of dangerous shadows. I liked this book because it is different from the usual magic reads. The use of one's own shadow is unique. Recommend reading in the dark with no lights. Definitely not in the sun....more
