This book is full of strong women and great supporting characters. I hope this isn't the last book of the series but if it is I'm ok with it.
This follows most of the format of the previous two book in that it is multiple points of view. There is information about the Daughters of Lilith and a bit of time travel back and forth between Maude and Anne Bonny the Pirate Queen. It also goes out side of Golgotha and into the wide world, Maude's daughter, Constance, is taken from Golgotha by her grandfather and then kidnapped.
Maude is a mom who won't let anything or anyone get in the way of her finding her daughter and woe to any who get in her way

"Chinatown, I just find to be so wonderfully stylish, so well thought-out. Great acting. For some reason, the scene in that that I found so wonderful is when Nicholson gets his nose sliced open, and then there’s a band-aid on it, and then later, he’s in the bathroom with Faye Dunaway, and she dresses the thing, and she takes the band-aid off. They were very honest and graphic about this, his nose and the stitches. And then there’s romance right after that. There’s a sex scene. I think it’s when they finally do it. I found that to be genius. I don’t know why that scene always has struck me as the most wonderful juxtaposition of beautiful and ugly. I think it speaks volumes about how to deal with violence truthfully."
