While Henrietta and the rest of London has survived the
barrier coming down, the monsters are still out there and R’hlem has issued a
bloody order – bring his Henrietta or all of London will die. First Henrietta and her friends will have to
retrieve some magical aid, but they also need to unearth why R’hlem wants
Henrietta so badly. And if they can,
they need to stop Rook from turning into a monster after he was bitten in the
last battle. Everything is a mess and
because of her dual sorcerer/magician blood, Henrietta has few people she can
trust.
Why did Cluess decide to turn up the swear count so
dramatically this time? The blood is
about the same and even the courtships or demure. The action is tense and compelling.
