Rose is set to take her guardian trial and then what? Well here is Rose's master plan, she is going to figure out how to return Dimitri to dhampir. In an effort to do this, Rose and Lissa are going to break Lissa's mortal enemy, Victor Dashkov out of prison to help locate Robert Doru, the only known spirit user who can turn strigoi back into dhampir. Now by itself, this is an ambitious undertaking but here it's just a means to an end and it's rushed and the three kids easily break Victor out of a maximum security vampire prison in mere minutes. yeah right. Now my question here is this: Rose is currently heavily dating Adrian. So if she is successful in returning the love of her life to life, what happens to Adrian? I guess that doesn't cross her mind. Of course, there are a ton of other things going on but this is the most ridiculous plot line of them all and it just couldn't keep my interest. I kept putting the book down to go do inconsequential things because I was so bored. I've had trouble with this series almost since the beginning but the books eventually redeem themselves and hook you in so you're forced to pick up the next installment just to see what ridiculous things Rose concocts.
