Wraith has vanished for a year. When she finally returns to New Orleans, the criminals are back to "business as usual". Without ISO-1 to control the area, the Russian mob-otherwise known as the Vory-has moved in and taken over the city. Literally. Now, Madi, Krisan, and her other allies must battle the supervillains of the Vory and the misguided superhero, Seraph, while also protecting a family the Vory have kidnapped from Argentina. With everyone trying to kill her, Madi needs to be more than a vigilante - she needs to become the top of the Big Easy's food chain.

Abrupt end to a wonderful series?
Revisado: 02-14-24
If this is the last book in the series it left a lot of unanswered questions not just series overall questions but ones from this book specifically. I went back twice to make sure I did not miss an epilogue. Now I am left wondering about major plot points. Maybe his plan is to answer these elsewhere?

Voice acting diction
Revisado: 10-03-18
I normally am not fussy regarding diction in voice acting and this is the first review where I have ever given negative feedback.
Typically I love it when a voice actor can do different voices and different accents. That being said Ms Jelsema hit a pet peeve of mine. Dropping middle consonants in words. Specifically Ts and Ds
Didn't = Dint
Certain = Cer-in
Important = Impor-in
Wouldn't = woont
Couldn't = coont
and so on.
Had it been only in the dialog I could have dismissed it as accent or dialect but it was also in the narration. It really took away from the story for me as I winced sentence after sentence when it occurred.
Other than that Ms Jelsema's performance was fine. This is something she should work on as a professional. It would be OK to adopt such a manner of pronunciation if the material called for it but it should not be her baseline.
It will make me think twice about choosing books where she is the performer.
