Dark forces are at work at the House of Night and fledgling vampyre Zoey Redbird’s adventures at the school take a mysterious turn. Those who appear to be friends are turning out to be enemies. And oddly enough, sworn enemies are also turning into friends. So begins the gripping third installment of this “highly addictive series” (Romantic Times), in which Zoey’s mettle will be tested like never before. Her best friend, Stevie Rae, is undead and struggling to maintain a grip on her humanity. Zoey doesn’t have a clue how to help her, but she does know that anything she and Stevie Rae discover must be kept secret from everyone else at the House of Night, where trust has become a rare commodity. Speaking of rare: Zoey finds herself in the very unexpected and rare position of having three boyfriends. Mix a little bloodlust into the equation and the situation has the potential to spell social disaster. Just when it seems things couldn’t get any tougher, vampyres start turning up dead. Really dead. It looks like the People of Faith, and Zoey’s horrid step-father in particular, are tired of living side-by-side with vampyres. But, as Zoey and her friends so often find out, how things appear rarely reflects the truth…
REVIEW
That's it I'm completely ADDICTED to this series! The books in this series just keep getting better and better. The characters are very well written and the plots of each book are great! There's no turning back now!
While Zoey tries to keep her head up, her friends end up turning on her one by one she loses touch with each and every one while making new friends along the way. Stevie Rae, one of my favorite characters and Zoey's best friend is not only dead but also undead at the same time. Turned by none other than the 'Head Master' herself, Neferet. I can't say that I like the woman one bit but we'll leave that alone for right now.
Who said one boyfriend was enough, when Zoey finds herself in the midst of a love affair with not one or two but three guys she's got her hands full. Juggling the men in her life and trying to keep her blood lust under control where Heath is concerned. Heath is one in which I adore most of the time.
When the story turns and vampyres' end up dead, it looks to be the work of Zoey's step-father and The People of Faith. Digging a little deeper into the mess around her Zoey must find a way to stop what's happening while still juggling her teenage boy drama.
