Once, when I picked up a book from the local library, the librarian asked to tell her what I thought about the book when I would bring it back. Well, why not write a few lines about all the books I read so everybody could see what I thought about it? I'm often also happy to have friends recommend a certain book or tell me this and that is not really worth reading. I won't comment about the tons of books I have read so far, but about books I read from now on.

This is book 17 in the fabulous Hollows series. If you haven't read the previous books in the series, then don't bother with this one; to really enjoy this book you need to know what happened before.
Rachel has dealt with Constance, with Finnis, with Hodin. Ivy is back in Cincinnati. So everything should be fine, except for the despelling of Pike's brother. Well, if you have read the series up to here, you'll know that something unpleasant will turn up and it's Rachel who has to deal with it. An acquaintance of the past turns up. An angry one. One who feels betrayed, cheated. One who wants to have back what he considers his. But if he does get it into his hands, all sorts of evil are likely to break out... And this old acquaintance is not even the worst of them. Somebody else is much worse behind the scenes...
As usual with the Hollow series, also this book is a good read, thrilling, funny, captivating. What I feel is a new twist is that Rachel gets much more advice and ideas from her friends than she used to. Some of the best ideas do not come from herself, but from her closest friends. And she actually takes the advice, listens. But Rachel is not the only one changing. Bis is becoming more sure of himself. David is getting involved with a werefox. There is a daemon not only quite openly backing her up, but also more and more opening up to her.
