Holy crap, what did I just read??? And when can I get my hands on the sequel??? Readers beware, heed the warnings, this is a VERY DARK book! It touches on just about every depravity out there. She doesn't shy away from anything. 
 But holy crap, she manages to pull you deep into the insanity and depravity that is Whitlock. You are there, in the story, heart pounding, hoping against hope that what you think is about to happen, won't. But it does, and you're left picking up the shattered pieces of your soul. Dramatic? Perhaps. But that's what this story is. A story of love, hate, lust, revenge, depravity, and perhaps, just a glimmer of hope. 
 Buy the book. Read it. You won't be able to put it down until you're finished, and even then, you'll feel the after effects of this story. Brava, Ms. Dark...excellent story!!
