Book 9 in Ms. Sands Argeneau Vampire series.

This is one of Lynsay Sands best books in the Argeneau series. We finally get to read Marguerite’s story…her whole story that is. On her new career, training to be a PI with Tiny (contracted by Christian Notte to find his long-lost mother), she meets her lifemate Julius Notte (Christian’s father). Someone is trying to kill Marguerite, someone doesn’t want Marguerite and Tiny to succeed, and Julius won’t leave her side to be butchered, literally, by someone trying to take her head. I don’t want to spoil it by saying too much, except: do not read the family tree in front of the book, unless you want to spoil one of the books BIG surprises.
