Lily Carlyle as Alice Perdue has been compromised as double agent. Now she has to hide out but she discovers that there are many who want to follow her because they think she will stop the Ninth Gate from opening and releasing all demons from hell.

Still Lily/Alice's first goal is to keep her sister Rose safe. She cannot believe that the demon who raped and brutalized Rose in the first place has now taken up residence in her body but Rose is still there as well so now Lily has to find out how she can fix this as she thinks it's her fault that she didn't take care of Rose in the first place. She must keep Rose close at hand but if she does she also has to deal with the demon who has his own agent when it comes to Lily and Rose.

Lily still has Deacon to deal with but it seems as if Deacon truly wants to help her. She trusts him a little but wants to make sure he doesn't have his own agenda as well. There are those in Lily's camp whom she isn't sure she can trust or believe. She feels as if she is all alone in this endeavor to save life as we know it.

The third book in the Blood Lily Chronicles was thoroughly satisfying even though the twists and turns were every bit as intriguing as the first two books. I enjoyed every word of every page in this captivating series!
