review, the second part The tragedy of the creole woman shows him, how short life is and how long death and how there is never enough love to go around. At the end Flynn is forced to face the sad truth that everyone is dealing with death and if you let the loss become more important than everything that went before, you make everything that went before meaningless.” But there is another conclusion for the readers that displays the author´s opinion on grief: “you don´t heal someone´s pain by closing your eyes, by turning away, by running from them”. Having brilliantly combined romance, mystery and paranormal elements, the author wrote the book that is simultaneously appealing to the broad reading audience. However, the main genre of this novel, the romance is represented least of all, which could be disappointing to some readers. Nevertheless Josh Lanyon successfully aroused the curiosity and made the admirers of his talent guess how the relationships between the main characters will develop. Among other works of the author this novel stands out because of smart combination of his best literary features: complex, psychologically realistic characters, emotional sensibility of the story, slow and tentative relationship development, witty and ironical writing, scary atmosphere and thought-provoking themes. One can honestly say that the new series couldn't have started more brightly and more satisfyingly.
