Elena Deveraux was
a born Vampire hunter, and one of the best. She was hired by angels to
find vampires who broke their contract. Usually, they also murdered at
the same time, so Elena was quite happy to find them, and she was paid
quite handsomely for the task.
Then she received
her newest assignment, and learning who hired her sent a shaft of fear
through her. He was Raphael, an archangel, a being who could be
terrifying in his harsh judgment, yet innately seductive. Elena would
need all her skills to outwit Raphael’s sensuality, while tracking an
archangel who was leaving a trail of death in his wake.
With Angels’
Blood, readers journey to a Manhattan where an archangel rules, vampires
are accepted members of society, and angels graced the skies. It is a
town with an unknown horror moving in its shadows, doing worse than just
killing. It is a world where Nalini Singh took all preconceived notions
and tossed them. There isn’t a clear line between good and evil, and it
is a series that I am eager to revisit. Yes, it was a bit gory at
times, but that was the nature of the evil Elena was tracking. With
Angels’ Blood, Nalini Singh proves once again that she is a master
storyteller.
