In the meantime something weird is going on between Hemlock and the wildcats which can threaten the greenest area of Bloodstone. The convos between Ava and Shalini are hilarious and I can't help but be happy for Ava for having such a great best friend.

He was the same from beginning to end, a broody, lonely figure who had a secret that would kill him if he revealed it to anyone. The authors take the orthodox, calm and clear positions that I’ve come to expect, but do so in a winsome and readable way – I wonder if this would be a good book for American friends to read, and to ponder giving to those (not all) who are ‘deconstructing’ and wondering if ‘evangelicalism’ has anything to offer. The plot is not bad and we know with Eva being an outcast and left in the human world there will be more than meets the eye with her and it's just when will that come out. I thought this would be some fantasy version of The Bachelor with a few fae bitch-fighting in high heels over the hot king. Britain celebrates the sinking of the Belgrano, Princess Diana prepares for the birth of her first child and Denton Police Division welcomes its first black policeman, DS Waters – recently relocated from East London.

In this book we follow Ava Jones a low-born fae thrust into the human world after having her own kind turn their backs on her, we meet Ava at the lowest point in her life, homeless, heartbroken and distraught.Hodder are to be commended for producing a nice little book, with the design element of the lens tying it together, amongst all the words. She has spunk even if her life just turned real ugly and she isn't one just to bow her head to a king, particularly when he is coming into the human world.

Overall, I really enjoyed this one, and I recommend to those who love sci-fi and dystopian with a bit of darkness and heart. From mid-half of the book, the plot began losing me since all the intrigue of the fae life and secrets were downplayed. DI Jack Frost, officially on duty, is nevertheless determined to sneak off to a colleague’s leaving party.

Determined to save her pet, Frost and Bunt venture out into the city plagued with cannibals and rogue robots. As the despised winter approaches, she realises that she can get her case back if she wins the Falcon Queen games. There is drama, there is some serious competition, and there are untold secrets laced within the pages. But one thing we know about Ava is that she has never been one to back down from a fight and bowing to a king of the people that threw her away like trash is surely one battle she can easily win.

It’s has an interesting take on the fae world in relation to the human world, and has a strong female friendship, and a strong well balanced romance that has potential to be addicting.
