Hanna Kang has been an investigator for the Black Lantern
Society long enough to understand her duty. The organization
is a behind-the-scenes group of witches, werewolves, and
vampires who do their best to bring the wicked ones to their
knees. But Hanna has a few DARK SECRETS of her own, but so
far the 38-year-old divorcee and mother of a son has done
her job without too many mishaps.
This assignment should have been simple β she and
hawk shifter Ginny Baker were set to babysit a prominent
witchβs princess daughter, Monica. Things go very
wrong when, during her hen party, the bride-to-be
disappears, and bridesmaids are murdered or missing.
To complicate matters, to her way of thinking, help in
the form of Rene Jones arrives. He is gorgeous, mysterious,
and dangerous β and has gotten her hormones to
reactivate as never before. But the secretive man and the
shadows he comfortably walks in have her pulling back.
Though, as things move forward, she is really glad he came
into her life.
In DARK SECRET, author Keri Arthur takes fans back into
the world that brought her fans the fascinating Lizzie Grace
series with this new Black Lantern Society. As an older
woman, it is nice to see someone find romance in their late
30s as Hanna does. She is a smart, tough woman who is good
at her job as an investigator, though a bit wary of getting
too close to anyone β you will find out why as you
read DARK SECRETS. Rene is the perfect mysterious man, who
gives a little while hiding many secrets β again, you
will find out more about this sexy man as you read.
As you read DARK SECRETS, you will recognize many of the
last names that were also in the Lizzie Grace books β
the Ashworths and Kangs β but they are very different
from the people we knew. Ms. Arthur also adds in a variety
of other characters that enlarge the whole spectrum of those
that readers will like, love, hate, and not be sure of.
The danger, intrigue, and thrilling action will have you
unable to put DARK SECRETS down. You will be drawn into
finding out what could possibly be behind the kidnappings
and death that was supposed to be a nothing babysitting
duty.
DARK SECRETS is an amazing beginning to a new series, and
I look forward to learning even more about the Black Lantern
Society, Hanna, Rene, and the whole new world.
Hanna Kang has been an investigator for the Black Lantern Society—an organisation of witches, werewolves, and vampires who work behind the scenes to right wrongs via whatever means necessary—for nigh on three years, and has certainly done her part in bringing society's "wicked witches" to justice.
So when she and her shapeshifter partner, Ginny Baker, are given the task of babysitting Monica Ashworth, the pampered only child of one of Canberra's most prominent witches, she looks forward to the change of pace.
But things go very wrong, very fast.
Monica is kidnapped from under their noses, a bridesmaid is murdered, and another goes missing.
As Hanna and Ginny battle to find the two women before they also end up dead, a mysterious stranger steps in to help Hanna—a man who has no life force but who appears as human as she.
A man she is dangerously attracted to.
With the body count mounting and the lies of all those around them beginning to unravel, it soon becomes clear that revenge, not money, is at the heart of it all.
But Monica and her father are not the only ones holding secrets. Hanna has them too… and hers can kill.
