The tenth book in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series gives us Tohrment's story. It has been 15 months since Tohr's wife Wellsie and their unborn child were murdered and Tohr is not doing well. His grief has overwhelmed him and it takes everything he has just to function in the brotherhood. Now Lassiter tells Tohr that he must move beyond his grief. Wellsie and the baby are not in The Fade as everyone believed, but stuck in the "in between" because Tohr cannot let them go. Tohr must release his hold on Wellsie and build a new life. Easier said than done.

This book spans one years time. We get to see Tohr slowly come to terms with his grief with the help of Xhex's mother, No'One, which is sometimes heartbreaking, and with the help of Lassiter which is many times hilarious. Other highlights of this story is the relationship between John Matthew and Xhex. Problems have cropped up and they are struggling. I thought this portion of the book was very realistic and would fit a lot of today's relationships.

The Band of Bastards who were introduced in the previous book play a big part in this one. Xcor wants to dethrone Wrath and he will do just about anything to get his way. I'm really looking forward to more information about these guys.

The story touches on the Qhuinn/Blay/Layla/Saxton relationships and gives us a new twist. And with Qhuinn's last thought in the book, I'm ready to hope straight into book eleven. My rating: 5 Stars.
