Second book in the Hollows series. This book starts with Rachel being called in to help with a serial killer who has been killing witches with ley line abilities. Rachel suspects Trent Kalamack is behind the gruesome killings when his secretary Sara Jane comes into the FIB to report her boyfriend missing. Sara Jane showed kindness to Rachel when she was trapped as a mink in Trent's office so Rachel feels like she owes Sara Jane some help even if she doesn't know who Rachel is. Very interesting story threads throughout the book - more about Ivy's motives for rooming with Rachel, who is Trent Kalamack anyway, Rachel's past that involves Trent, what can finally make Nick afraid of messing with magic.. All make this a great page-turner. A couple of annoying things: the killer tomatoes and humans fear of them is beginning to annoy me. Also I find this one thing highly unbelieveable: 40 years of living with the supernatural and humans are THAT clueless about witches/vampires/weres/etc STILL? Everytime a human reacted in ignorance I would be irritated. I suspect this is a way for the author to explain more about supernatural culture to a reader, but I wish she found another way to do it than have her characters make really stupid mistakes and then explain why you don't do that to a vampire/witch/whatever.
Currently 0/5 Stars.

Really enjoyable read; I like this series. Rachel is tough and Ivy is a great, dangerous character. And who doesn't love Jenks? Quick read and not full of icky romance.
I pretty much felt the same about this book that I did about the first! Rachel doesn't seem to be thinking anymore than she did during the first book and Ivy still is too far behind the scene. I still enjoyed the humor and this book began delving a little more into the romantic aspects of Rachel's life. Near the end a clearer picture is painted of what she seems to want!
I enjoyed this one; although, not as much as the first. I will continue the series!
A great series! A mix between Laurell K Hamilton and Rachel Marie Moning that makes you want to read them over agin! I still own all of these books and am re-reading them now. This one is even better than the first one.
I love the fact that she is learning more about her abilities and Trenton. Kist was pretty hot too. The bit about Ivy was a little hard to read. Not liking Nick so much in this one and where was Keasley in this one?
