Description
Jane Yellowrock goes back to the city where it all began in the newest installment of this thrilling New York Times bestselling series. Jane used to hunt vampires, but now she's their queen. She's holed up in the mountains with the Yellowrock Clan, enjoying a little peace, when a surprise attack on her people proves that trouble is brewing. Someone is using very old magic to launch a bid for power, and it's all tied to the place where Jane was first drawn into the world of Leo Pellissier-the city of New Orleans. Jane is compelled to return to NOLA because someone is trying to destabilize the paranormal world order. And because she now sits near the top of the vampire world, the assault is her problem. She will do what she must to protect what's hers. Her city. Her people. Her power. Her crown.

ReviewsPraise for the Jane Yellowrock Novels "A lot of series seek to emulate Hunter's work, but few come close to capturing the essence of urban fantasy: the perfect blend of intriguing heroine, suspense, fantasy with just enough romance."--SF Site "Jane is a fully realized, complicated woman; her power, humanity, and vulnerability make her a compelling heroine. The fight scenes are exciting and the New Orleans setting is absorbing, but it's the ever-evolving bond between Jane and her Beast personality that keeps this fun series fresh."--Publishers Weekly "Jane Yellowrock is smart, sexy, and ruthless."-Kim Harrison, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dead Witch Walking "Readers eager for the next book in Patricia Briggs's Mercy Thompson series may want to give Faith Hunter a try."--Library Journal "Hunter's very professionally executed, tasty blend of dark fantasy, mystery, and romance should please fans of all three genres."--Booklist "Hunter is an expert at creating worlds filled with intriguing supernatural elements and exciting scenarios; the latest Yellowrock novel packs a powerful punch."--RT Book Reviews "Seriously. Best urban fantasy I've read in years, possibly ever."--C. E. Murphy, author of Magic and Manners
