Short
Summary of the book:
In the first book in the series, we met Jev
and Zenia, initially as adversaries. Now, they are working together and have
been appointed as Agents of the Crown for Jev’s friend and the ruler of the
land, Targyon. They are in charge of the investigations into the disease of the
blood that killed Targyon’s cousins. Is Targyon also at risk?

I liked about the book:
I loved this book even more than I did the
first one in the series and just couldn’t stop reading.

I didn’t like about the book:
There was nothing I disliked about the book.
My
favourite bits in the book:
I enjoyed all the suspense and action within
the book.
My
least favourite bits in the book:
The end. I wanted to read more and find out what
happened next. This is most likely what led me to buy the next book in the
series immediately after reading this one.
Any
further books in the series? Any more planned by this author?
The author has written more books in this
series and I’m definitely a fan.
What
books could this be compared to and why?
The book is similar to the first in the
series. It uses magic, suspense, mystery and detective skills. Definitely a
winner.

Description by Author:
Recently appointed Crown Agents Jev and Zenia
must prove that they're worthy of their new jobs and young King Targyon’s
trust.
Their mission?
To research the strange “disease of the
blood” that killed Targyon’s three cousins and left him unexpectedly ruling an
entire kingdom at barely twenty years of age.
There are just a few problems. If someone was
responsible for creating that disease, that person could still be in the city,
forcing Zenia and Jev to deal with someone very smart and very dangerous.
Meanwhile, since Targyon has the same blood flowing through his veins that his
cousins had, he’s at risk of becoming the next victim. And as it so happens,
Jev shares some of that blood too. Might he become a target before Targyon?
When Jev and Zenia signed on for this job,
they didn’t realize how deadly it might become..
