This is book 2 in the series and I have not read book 1. Paulie Zahn is a very competent woman who is a tenacious and capable Army Sergeant for the Maintenance and Repair unit and awarded a Purple Heart, Air Medal for valor, and a Distinguished Flying Cross. Until that night in November when she is bitten by a Rogue Vampire and her life changed forever.

Sørensen's depictions of military life and the inner workings of Newmark Industries' family of Vampires, Damphires and Norms is detailed and engaging. However, the story is a bit verbose and repetitive, for example when Paulie repeatedly expounds how she loves her new family, etc., etc. The story starts out fast and then slows a bit in the middle, but it picks up and carries the reader through Paulie's suspense-filled journey into a new perilous and paranormal world. If you like badass vampires, give this one a try.
