Vampires are vanishing. They all seem to know what's going
on, at least the founder and her head cronies do, but the
rest of Morganville's populace, human and vampire, seem to
be spending more time taking sides for or against a
human/vampire wedding. Everyone is stressed out, no one is
acting like he or she usually does, and people are
literally trying to (and sometimes succeeding) kill each
other. Claire can't help but try to figure out what's going
on, but the tensions keep building for Amelie, the town's
Founder, Myrnin, Claire's wacky vampire boss, and Oliver,
Amelie's right-hand man, sometimes adversary, and thwarted
paramour. When the residents of Glass House (Eve, Michael,
Shane, and Claire) start to figure out some of what's
really going on, what the vampires don't want anyone to
know, not even death can stop them from trying to make a
final stand; however, this time the vampires and the humans
have to work together, for real, to fight an enemy that the
vampires know...and run from.
First, buy all of the books
in the series and then read them through to this book in
order to get the depth and layering of the entire series up
through this novel. Next, start counting down the days
until the next book. I don't often yell at my books. After
a little time (you'll race through this book, trust me)
reading and enjoying the heck out of LAST BREATH, I came to
several points that had me yelling at the book, talking to
the characters, and pretty much hoping that Rachel Caine
had decided to release her next book, oh, the day after she
released this one. This is fantastic.
With her boss preoccupied researching the Founder Houses in
Morganville, student Claire Danvers is left to her own
devices when she learns that three vampires have vanished
without a trace. She soon discovers that the last person
seen with one of the missing vampires is someone new to
town-a mysterious individual named Magnus. After an uneasy
encounter with Morganville's latest resident, Claire is
certain Magnus isn't merely human. But is he a vampire-or
something else entirely?
