Resumen del Editor

Blood might be thicker than water, but venom is stronger than just about anything…

It was supposed to be a nice, quiet, simple dinner with friends - but nothing is ever nice, quiet, or simple when you’re Gin Blanco, the Spider, notorious assassin and current queen of the Ashland underworld.

This time around, someone seems to be targeting Stuart Mosley, the president of First Trust bank. Lots of people have grudges against Mosley, but the more I investigate, the more Mosley’s problems seem to be connected to some of my own, especially when it comes to the Circle, the evil, shadowy group that is secretly responsible for much of the crime and corruption in Ashland.

But when another blast from my dark and deadly past as the Spider comes to light, I wonder if I’ll be able to survive this dangerous new enemy, who has a burning thirst for revenge that will only be satisfied with one thing: my death.

Another great story

I love the characters. The narrator has them nailed down. Once again Estep has woven a web and sucked me in.

Gin is closer than ever to The Circle

This is one of my favorite series. It's one of the only series I listen to solely on audio since the narrator totally nails this character. I enjoy the assassin/great cook Gin Blanco and her cohorts. Since the author revealed that Gin’s family were involved with the illuminati-ish group “The Circle”, I’ve been waiting to see which one of Gin’s parents is still alive. That didn’t occur in this book but I know the deceased savant Fletcher knew which one of Gin’s parents was into shady business and I can’t wait for him to reveal it in one of his notes to the gang.

While I continue to enjoy the plot, I am impatiently waiting for the big reveal of Hugh Tucker’s motivations because he is a gray area in this story. He is portrayed as a villain, but he goes out of his way to assist Gin, Finn and Bria. So, what exactly is Hugh’s deal? I am also waiting for a villain on the level Mab Monroe. No one, not Mab’s daughter, Finn’s mom Deidra or anyone else has captured my attention like the elemental sociopath Mab Monroe. I want the Spider to have another great rival, and I am not convinced the real power behind the Circle will provide that. I hope so, but I am certainly waiting for the next one.

Can't get enough of Gin Blanco!

Again Jennifer Estep does a fantastic job of creating havoc in the lives of Gin Blanco, her family and friends. This is a series that always gets "read" on the day it comes out. Other listens are put on hold to hear how Gin and her crew save Ashland from savory masterminded criminals. With Jennifer Estep's wonderful imagination and Lauren Fortgang riveting narration this book was another awesome read!

They Just Keep Coming

Always a good listen. Riveting all the way through. Can't wait for the next one.

I'm a big fan

Followed Gin since the beginning, and love diving into her world. Lauren's southern accent is right on for me and a joy to listen to.

A completely unsatisfying end to series.

This is the first serial novel that I have completed. I probably should not do another. Where each column in a series novel each must be able to stand mostly alone, I grew to know how to wait 5 seconds,10 seconds, 15, 45, 3 minutes. And to endure the gratuitous graphic sex scenes.
Good character development kept me listening, and plausible story lines kept me entertained. My mother once said that I would listen to anyone reading to me, even if it was just the dictionary. This is not to demean Ms Fortang’s presentation. Her voice and characterizations kept me listening.

I spend a great deal of time behind the wheel of a vehicle. Thank you for keeping me entertained for the hours.

venom in the veins

another awesome book! can't wait for the next one! kickass characters a
that are full of life.

Speechless!!

Super!!!. I can't wait to see if Mason really is the long lost uncle of the Spider!!!

I enjoy the main character

I find the main character interesting I many ways so always look forward to another book. I felt that this time the author spent to much time reminiscing of past then getting on with this new story

You choose your friends who become your family

Jennifer Estep has created a wonderful series about an assassin with a heart. Sounds like an oxymoron but true. She is what everyone secretly wants to be. She loves her family and will do whatever it takes to keep them safe. As long as it fits within her limited code then she will do it. Politics is not her concern, just right and wrong. She will be judge, jury, and executioner and everyone is with her because her choice of victims is so far beyond redemption that legal or not you can't help rooting for her! #strong female protagonist #UrbanFantasy #Magic #clever #funny #suspensful #tagsgiving #sweepstakes
