There are plenty of changes afoot in this book, and I enjoyed how that changes provided some added storylines. All of this let us get to know Jim and Sally even better without losing the supporting players I’ve come to love. The story is strong and kept me engaged all the way to the logical climax. In fact, I wasn’t complaining when I got to read the second half in one day. I even learned a bit more about greyhounds. If you aren’t yet reading Liz’s books, you are really missing out.

One thing I need to mention first... it is SO good to read something set in Wales rather than Ireland! I have nothing against Ireland, but there are other Celtic countries out there, although you could be forgiven for thinking otherwise.
This was an enjoyable story that took place both in the present and the past. I love the group of friends Kay has. It is full of paganism and mysticism, although written as both specialised and general day-to-day knowledge. The blending of the two lives is well-written, giving the reader Kay's sense of confusion as she tries to understand what is happening.
This is definitely a series so be prepared to be left with questions at the end, which will leave you wanting more.

First off, I love Oaklynn's name. She is a strong character, even when things get tough. She is unapologetic about her past but has a plan for her present. Unfortunately for her, Damien is there to blow those plans out of the water.
I loved how it was written for Oaklynn and Thalia. Even though it was clear to the reader, Oaklynn's naivety made it perfect. I did find it hard when the revelations came out though, and my heart broke for Oaklynn for how everyone had treated her, even if I could 'maybe' understand the reasons for it.
Damien falls first and I love that trope, especially when it's written as well as it is here. He knows he has to tell her but hopes for just one more day. Until he has no choice. How he behaved after that made it realistic.
The Seven - oh, man. I love this lot. Such distinct personalities, going through so much, and having each others' backs. I can't wait to dive back into their world. And I'm really hoping Raina and Waverley are in there too somewhere. Jaylini, well, I didn't really warm to her so I'm not too bothered if she doesn't reappear.
The mystery side wasn't such a mystery, as it was pretty clear from the hints given who it was, but for me, it wasn't so much who it was, but rather how it was written and the reactions to it.
A brilliant story that I loved and HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
