"I was a twenty-two-year-old single white female alone in a strange country where my sister had been killed." Of course you were. It's not like the publishing companies of paranormal romance novels can have a NON-white main character to read about.

This protagonist is really annoying. I'm hoping there will be some character development where she's concerned because at this point in time she has less depth than the all-important, frequently mentioned Barbie that she is compared to.

"Now I understood the slightly exotic slant to the dark eyes, the deep gold skin, the bad attitude. I didn't think there could be a more primitive pairing of genes." So, the protagonist relates looking "exotic" and relatively dark-skinned to being "primitive." This book recycles the tired old motif of dark physical traits being associated with something evil or sinister. It's racist, and it's also been done before.
