My Review

"So violent. Like a feral cat. We like that about you Miriam. You get things done. We hope you stay on board with us for a long time. We'd hate to see you go. Though we do have one helluva severance package for you when the time comes - " 


Miriam's plight to purge her curse takes a turn for the worse when her world and that of an 8yr boy, collide, causing a ripple effect sure to permeate throughout Miriam's remaining days. 

Supernatural and urban-fantasy elements steadily become more paramount in the fourth installment of the foul speaking, ass-kicking Miriam Black series, yet the undertones of horror remain strong - there are some truly gut churning scenes thanks to Miriam's strengthened ability to share conscience with her avian allies. 

There's a bit of back and forth as the plot pushes and pulls Miriam between salvation and slaughter progressively building towards a draw-dropping ending more akin to a punch in the face than a full stop at the end of a sentence. Wow. 

My rating: 4/5 stars. Such a fun series.
