Kiera may be a "newbie", but she knows what she is doing and knows that she better take the first job offered to her to prove herself. Even if it is to a small town with very bad stories behind it and a reputation of having officers go missing. When she gets there she is shocked to see how the station is run, which really may not have been such a shock to her, had she worked somewhere else right after getting out of the academy first. While being shown to her place she is staying by Luke, a handsome co-worker of hers, she is soon diving right in to her new job ahead of schedule. She soon learns that there have been many many murders or cases of missing persons in this small town and all have gone unsolved. Kiera's question is why have they gone unsolved? Is it because the police there seem to be so lax in their system? Is it because it really is that hard of a case to crack? The more she learns the more questions she has and soon she is wondering if her new "friend", Luke, is really as innocent as he seems. Kiera's determined to solve this case, but what will that cost her? Will she become a statistic of another lost/killed officer in this small town before she can get to the bottom of things?What a read! I just loved Kiera as the main character. She was such a great character in so many ways. I loved that she was this new recruit that wanted nothing more than to prove herself to the other cops she worked with. She wasn't afraid to stand up for what she was believing and was trained to do. She also had such a great gift for "seeing" things that others miss, she is just so observant and such a great cop because of that. I also enjoyed Luke, the handsome, kind, yet very mysterious co-worker of Kiera's. This book took off with the mystery right away and just kept throwing it at me until the very end of the book. The flow was great too, there weren't any of those choppy moments that make you wonder what happened to the author as they were writing. It simply continued to flow on. The descriptions used in this book were so realistic I felt like I was watching a movie while reading it. I had no trouble what so ever visualizing what the author wanted me to be seeing. The best thing about this book I think, was the unique combination of mystery, cop mystery, and vampires. It was a unique spin on the usual vampire stories and mystery books that worked very well the way the author wrote it. Very good book, that I highly suggest you check out!5/5 Stars!
