This book was a unique fantasy story that left me dying for the other half of this story. Another year seems like a cruel amount of time to wait to find out what happens next. I will say this book started very slowly and it took a while to really grab my interest. Once I got about a third of the way through it I found I couldn’t put it down. I really liked the characters and the world building. Arthie Casimir is a keeper of secrets, she loves gathering them and only reveals them when it is advantageous to her. When a person who should be an enemy approaches her with an opportunity she cannot refuse she gathers a misfit band of fellow criminals but not all of them are truly aligned and working with her. This book holds only a glimmer of magic, but there is a society of vampires within the human society. I generally feel like there isn’t a new way to tell the story of the vampire or a new way to use them but this story proves that wrong. Overall I gave this one 4.5 stars which I rounded up because of the uniqueness to the story. The narrator did a great job bringing the story to life, especially Arthie.
