About this ebook

Sometimes, you need a demon to fight demons. 

Lincoln Marshall is a small-town deputy with a very big problem. Six members of his church have been found dead, killed by a rogue werewolf. He’ll have to make a deal with the Devil to save victims that have gone missing — maybe literally. Elise Kavanagh, preternatural investigator and exorcist, is the expert when it comes to violent deaths at the jaws of evil. She’s also among the most powerful demons that Hell has spawned. 

Elise jumps at Lincoln’s case, and it’s not just because of his down-home charm. Someone’s laid a trap for her in Northgate, and she wants to find out who. She’ll have to team up with Rylie Gresham, Alpha of the last surviving werewolf pack, to figure out who’s trying to blame the murders on werewolves. 

Only together can they stop the killings — and uncover the secrets buried in Northgate.

I got this as a low-cost loss leader from Google Books. It shows as the first in a series, but I think(hope?) that it's actually a continuation of an earlier works, because there is so much info that a new reader just has to accept with no explanation, following its own twisted path down the Biblical mythos. For example: - God & Adam are the same being, who went crazy and has since died. - Lillith, the First Demon, who I think is dead too. - Erica(protagonist), dead human exorcist returned from Hell as a demon. Also somehow absorbed Eve's(Adam's wife, aka the First Angel) soul, and may have also killed God? (None of these events are explained.) Clear as mud? I thought so too. *Special note about chaper 27* Many things suddenly (and inexplicably) change here. It's almost like this was written for a different version of the same series, where characters had made different life choices?

This series is my ultimate favorite series I've ever come across. S.m Reine, is also one of my top 2 favorite authors because of her work on The Descent Series&The Ascension Series and her ability to connect all of her other series together whether you started anywhere. But you really should start at the beginning. I read books like water. I can read a good book in 2 hours flat and keep reading and I'm usually pretty good at predictions and she kept me guessing and wondering,That's not easy, Mindblowing!
