Gin Blanco is officially a "scary assassin" and one who should be feared. She has managed to take out more than her fair share of notorious criminals, but inadvertently makes herself a target for other jealous assassins. With these threats hot on her trail, Gin takes off with her baby sister to try to get away. But plans are never perfect, right? Gin runs into her old flame, Donovan...
Gin is as great a character as ever. She protects the innocent and pays attention to her baby sister. Her intelligence and skill always show through the action scenes. Donovan's character will probably strike readers as loathsome. It's hard to forget his betrayal from the last few books.
Gin will likely impress readers when she shows she couldn't care less that Donovan shows up at random. Gin has her own attentive lover, Owen, who she doesn't have to worry about cheating or leaving her. The love scenes are well-thought-out and believable. Overall, the plot was great and Gin's character alone is worth picking up BY A THREAD.

have to dig the silverstone knives out of her suitcase after
all. But this time, her special powers might not be enough
to prevent her from coming home in a pine box
