3.0
This book is pretty action-packed, but it leaves the MCs and their romance a bit underdeveloped. Kaldar's magic ability is talked about, but we rarely see it in action. It's unsurprising a con artist might be wary of trusting another con artist, but this concern is overcome too easily. I love everything by Ilona Andrews, but this is one of their weaker books - their strength is on focusing on a single set of characters through a series, not writing a different h/H for each book. It's still worth reading if you are going through their backlist.
