IF YOU CAN'T TRUST YOUR BEST FRIEND
WITH YOUR DEEPEST, DARKEST SECRET,
WHO CAN YOU TRUST?
Zoey wasn't a moron. She knew something was wrong. That was obvious, but how could Stevie Rae even start to tell her? There was just so much to explain. He was just so much to explain. And she'd never meant for any of it to happen.
Dark secrets and unspoken suspicions come between Zoey and Stevie Rae, putting their friendship- and the House of Night- at risk.
After Zoey Redbird and her gang have banished Kalona and Neferet from Tusla, you'd think they'd catch a break. But with Zoey and her sexy warrior Stark both recovering from a brush with death, and the fledglings struggling to deal with the fallout from Nefret's reign of terror, a break is just not in the forecast. Zoey is haunted by her confusing yet elemental connection with A-ya, the ancient Cherokee maiden who was the only human able to tempt Kalona's body and soul. How will A-ya's pull on her affect Zoey's ability to resist the dangerously seductive immortal?
Meanwhile, Stevie Rae, with her super red-vamp powers, always thought she could handle stiff she's been keeping from her BFF. But the mysterious, threatening force lurking in the tunnels under the Tusla Depot is spreading. Stevie Rae won't confide where she's been and what she's doing, and Zoey is beginning to wonder just how much she can trust the person she always thought would have her back.
Will their choices destroy them and will the darkness consume the House of Night? Find out in the next spectacular installment in the bestselling House of Night series.
Carzz's Review
I really love this book series. It's unique, and got it's own style. However, this was by far my least favorite in the series. I don't like books that preach at me, and I could see some very strong religious parallels in this book (if you read in and didn't, well good for you). Also I didn't like how almost every chapter would change from one POV to a different POV. It really quite bothered me. Besides that, check it out.
