Synopsis

Rachel Morgan, a witch who works as a bounty hunter, has lost her lover Kisten to murder. She wants his killer found and made to pay, and she does not care what it takes. She has already been hurt, and has already crossed lines she once swore she would stay behind.

There is a gap in her memory. Her pixy partner Jenks suppressed her recollection of the night Kisten died, to keep her from charging after the killer on a suicidal mission. Rachel must now recover what she lost a fragment at a time, working with a psychiatrist from the FIB.

The story unfolds in Cincinnati, home to humans and to Inderlanders of every kind: witches, vampires, pixies and more. It is urban fantasy, told in the third person, and it runs on grief and a thirst for revenge.

The seventh novel in the Hollows series by Kim Harrison, it also brings Rachel's past back to face her. As she digs toward the truth, a new predator climbs to the top of the Inderland food chain, and every step she takes grows more dangerous.
