Charley Davidson has enough going on without having to worry about twelve hellhounds hot on her trail. She is, after all, incredibly pregnant and feeling like she could pop at any moment. But, just her luck, twelve deadly beasts from hell have chosen this time to escape onto our plane, and they've made Charley their target. And so she takes refuge at the only place she thinks they can't get to her: the grounds of an abandoned convent. Of course, if hellhounds aren't enough, Charley also has a new case to hold her attention: the decades-old murder of a newly-vowed nun she keeps seeing in the shadows of the convent.
Add to that the still unsolved murder of her father, the strange behavior of her husband, and Charley's tendency to attract the, shall we say, undead, and she has her hands full...but also tied.

Dear Lordy I hated that ending .-. The middle part didn't make me exactly happy either. It mostly had to do with how Charley and Reyes were forced to stay at the convent on consecrated ground as a precaution against the hell hounds. Sure, there were a lot of riveting plot twists. But I quite miss the old times when Charley drove around kicking ass and solving cases. Don't worry, for those of you who haven't read the book yet; there's a case in this book as well. However, it's just not the same. Anyways, now I'm not sure I want to read the next book, considering how frustrating it'll surely be. (Read this book to understand.)
