This story was filled with mystery, danger and romance. (The cover for this book I thought did a great job telling this story too.) It kept me turning the pages until I finished and at times brought a smile to my face. Who is Hugo really?? And who is the Scorpion?? Can Perri handle all the sorrow, danger and confusion that is being thrown at her throughout this story? It will keep you on your toes and might even surprise you near the end. I enjoyed myself once again reading the tales of the 'sisters of spirit' series. ( )
