Book Blurb:
Welcome to Western Europe in 2020.
The International Vampire Council are in the middle of intense negotiations with the Global Six when a mysterious plot is revealed to end Manon's life and thinly veiled lies Mikkel has told his wife will be exposed once and for all.
Manon is sent into hiding with Emmerik as her protector while a deal can be negotiated to spare her life.
As the clock ticks toward a catastrophic outbreak of new virus which seeks to destroy not only the Lycan population but millions of humans along with it, two ancient vampires return prematurely from their time in the ground, and their mood is less than receptive.
What will happen? Who will live? Who will face betrayal? Who will die? Sometimes, the most devastating secrets are better off dead and buried.
**This novel is not YA friendly, contains plenty of snark, supernatural creatures included, but not limited to, vampires and Lycans, not to mention a few choice scenes of sex and death. It is not for the faint of heart.
Book Review:
All in all, the writing style is quirky and has many humorous lines. And I think that there was a solid foundation where research and plot lines are concerned. My opinion is tainted with the fact that I skipped book one-which I will have to remedy. So for those who read and enjoyed Death Wish, I think you will be in your happy place.
