I like Angie Amalfi and her beau, Paavo, her friend Connie, and her big Italian family. That being said, the characters just felt "off" in this book. None of them were acting the way I've come to expect. It was almost like they were all written as opposites - Angie was successful but cranky, Paavo was dithering and unsure, Connie was just snarky and mean. I also found the storyline/premise to be extremely creepy - more suited to Hallowe'en than to early Spring when it takes place. There is a demonic cult operating within the Goth culture in San Francisco, and Angie and her crowd somehow get swept up in its plans. The author tried waaaaay too hard to write in such a way as to surprise you at the end .. in effect ruining the surprise, becasue it was obvious that it would happen, even if not what, who or how.
