A great start that really draws you into Sabina's world. Sabina is an assassin for the Dominae which is headed by her grandmother, Lavinia. Vampires and Mages are mortal enemies. However, Sabina is half vampire and half mage which certainly makes for interesting moral dilemmas. The Dominae is being threatened by Clovis Trakiya. Clovis is building an army of the disenfranchised vampires, demons, mages and fae in an effort to destroy the Dominae. Now Sabina is tasked with infiltrating Clovis Trakiya's cult and ultimately killing Clovis.

This book is action from start to finish with a sweet romantic element as well. I particularly liked the demon Giguhl though he reminded me of Effrijim from Katie MacAlister's Aisling Grey series but maybe that's why I liked him. I am anxiously awaiting the next installment in Sabina's adventures and hope Sabina and Adam eventually become a couple.
