Niki Hunter wasn't ready for her life to be thrown upside down. When her mother is murdered, she is thrust into a life and world she didn't know existed. Inheriting her mother's job as protector of the line between the Seen and the Unseen, she is given the duty of protecting both sides.
But before she can begin working for the Moth Queen, she has something she wants to take care of she wants to find her mother's killer. But even dealing with a wolfman and a fire elemental doesn't prepare her for how to handle the ire of a fallen god.
It's been a while since I read a book that took me on an adventure like this; it reminded me of summer days hanging around the library's fantasy & science fiction section, getting casually sucked in by the cover art, and then, still hovering by the bookshelf, feeling less and less the impulse to put it back on the shelf, and more and more the desire to know what was going to happen next.
