Another great installment in the series, maybe the best one yet. There's a nice tone of urgency, a la Jack Bauer: all the action here takes place within just a week or two of the start of the story in Book 1 and the plot developments of Book 2. Raine's magical/demonic foes keep multiplying but she's still staying one step ahead, albeit just by the skin of her teeth. A wonderful fantasy heroine in the Rachel Morgan mode, equal parts Buffy Summers and VI Warshawsky. She's smart - and a smartaleck - but clearly has a moral compass. (A note for fans of Tam and Mychael: while the prose stays chaste, the love triangle does get more interesting in this book.)
