This is one of my favourite rereads. I get tired of reading books with immature couples and over the top drama so I appreciate Patricia Briggs way of portraying healthy relationships in her books. It makes her writing even more enjoyable because its not always about somebody's hurt ego. I love Charles and Anna's relationship.

Slow to start and for some reason the plot line didn't spark for me. However, at about one third of the way through things picked up (could be me, could be PB). I liked some of the Charles-Anna push pull working through their connection problems. Lots of grimness and abusive behaviour in the baddies of the piece which was rather discomforting.

Mostly left me with a postivive feeling in the end.

Minor: Rape

This story deals with hunting a serial killer with decades of victims. Several victims have been raped and that is mentioned, although not graphically. One of the most recent victims is a child, and there is a scene involving a spirit of the child (briefly) - but that spirit doesn't speak. The deaths are spoken of clinically and usually in summary to bring our main characters Anna and Charles up to speed on the investigation.
