Ava is a firebug, a person who can start fires with her mind. She could deal with this better if she was not owned by the Coterie, a mafia-like group of magical creatures, and used as a hitman. This especially burns because she is forced to work for Venus, the vampire responsible for her mother's death. Unfortunately, saying no to the Coterie means a torturous death for you and those close to you, so Ava can't escape. When the Coterie ask her to take out a close family friend, Ava rebels. As she and her unusual group of friends (a werefox, a half-dryad, a golem-maker, and some nasty werehares) struggle to stay a step ahead of the Coterie, the price of Ava's freedom may cost her more than she is willing to accept. This new novel from Lish McBride, the author of the cult-hit Hold Me Closer, Necromancer, will please her fans. It is set in the same world as her first books but it another part of the country. Readers can only hope that Ava will eventually meet up with Sam and his crew. The same sarcastic banter is there as is the original cast of characters that you wish were your friends. The only thing I disliked about the book was its abrupt ending; I can only hope that there will be another book to resolve more of Ava's issues, especially her love life. This new supernatural book will set you on fire and make you ask for more!
