19 yo Huntress Celie finds a woman dead as she’s leaving the cemetery after visiting her sister’s memorial spot. She learns that more bodies have been found and she’s being kept in the dark for her protection. She goes out on her own to investigate when she gets kidnapped and pulled into vampire life on the Isle of Requiem. Celie discovers that things aren’t always as they seem. All that she has grown up to believe is turned upside down and she has to learn to rely on the help of others.
I like the complexity of the characters. I like the character variety and character development. I enjoyed the mystery surrounding the whole story. The ethnicity is predominantly white with amber, tawny, and bronze skin characters mentioned.
