Another night lying on a lumpy mattress listening to the wind hiss through a loose windowpane.Emma sighed, struggling to stay awake. Fatigue pulled at her lids, but she knew the moment sleep claimed her she'd see the monsters' faces in her dreams. She'd see them squeezing through the ravaged window, rounding on her mother...Her tears had dried hours ago, but the painful throb in her chest had yet to relent. She doubted it ever would. A lethal blend of guilt and regret poisoned her blood.She'd run. Run, like a goddamn coward. How could she have left her mom behind? Sure, they'd agreed years ago as to the right course of action should the creatures ever back them into a corner, but this was different. This was real. What kind of person left her mother at the mercy of soul-thieving demons?This is from the latest installment to Anne Hopes' Dark Souls' Series. She takes us 25 years ahead into Adrian's future. A future where he still mourns for his dead soulmate. Adrian is a Rogue and after having lost his beloved he went west to Arizona to rebuild. He and his fellow Rogues live near humans but separate. When he hears about the Kleptopsychs who ingest souls having a big to-do in Phoenix he is hell-bent on revenge. Adrian gets there soon enough to save Emma but not her mom. It turns out that Emma is the reincarnation of his lost love angie only, she doesn't know it. Emma accepts Adrians help and along the way they find out that keeping her safe may be the only way to save the world.This is a fast paced, well written sequel and it stands alone which makes it an even better bargain. If you have not read any of Anne Hopes saga then start here and you will definitely look for the rest as soon as you are finished. I did.
