In 1872, New Orleans is a city ruled by the dead. But to seventeen-year-old Celine rousseau, New Orleans provides her refuge after she is forced to flee her life as a dressmaker in Paris. Taken in by the sisters of a convent along with six other girls, Celine becomes enamoured by the city, music, and food. Especially the danger.

Celine quickly becomes sucked into the glitzy underworld, also known as La Cour Des Lions. Celine battles her attraction to the groups leader, Sebastien Saint Germain.

When more bodies are discovered, each crime more gruesome than the last, Celine and New Orleans become gripped by the terror of a serial killer on the loose- One Celine is sure has set his sights on her.. And who may even be the young man who has stolen her heart.

When I heard about this book coming out I was so excited to get another YA Vampire thriller/romance! I was sucked in from the beggining and I wanted to know who the killer was! This novel does have alternating POV’s, which was a little bit confusing at times. However, I loved Celine’s strong and determined attitude, which is uncommon from a woman in that time era. I also loved Bastien. He was broody, dark, dangerous, and devilishly handsome. The ending was a MAJOR cliffhanger and now I cannot wait for The Damned to come out next year!
