Karen rose never disappoints and this book is no exception. The evil is palpable and the characters, and their interactions are very real and engaging.

I knew I was going to love this book!! All the gang from the Baltimore series is back and finally after 23 years Clay Maynard is reunited with his daughter.

(This book would be best experienced if you've already read Books 1-4 in the Baltimore series which is 12-15 of the main series.)


This book defiantly has some suspense but that is built around the reuniting of Taylor with her birth father Clay and the budding romance between her and Ford Eikhart who is Daphine's son who was kidnapped in book 3/14. I think this is the first time this author has had young adults be the main characters in one of her book and I really enjoyed it. Both Taylor and Ford have been through traumatic experiences that made them much more mature than their physical ages.

I've said it many times in my past reviews of Karen's book that reading them is like going home and visiting family you love but dont get to see often. She has all these threads that connect each character that seamlessly are woven into each story. Having read every book in the series I am very happy to see some threads from many books back finally getting some closure – and happy closure at that.

Yay for Karen Rose!! Great book. Don't miss this one. The storyline grabbed me in the first chapter and kept me reading till I reached the last page!
