Dexter meets Victoria Schwab in this dark and compelling fantasy about a girl who is determined to take down the black market once and for all in the conclusion to the trilogy that started with the critically acclaimed Not Even Bones. Nita finally has Fabricio, the boy who betrayed her to the black market, within her grasp. But when proof that Kovit's a zannie--a monster who eats pain in order to survive--is leaked to the world, Nita must reevalute her plans. With enemies closing in on all sides, the only way out is for Nita and Kovit to take on the most dangerous man in the world: Fabricio's father. He protects the secrets of the monsters who run the black market. Stealing those secrets could be the one thing that stands between Nita and Kovit and certain death in the thrilling conclusion to the trilogy that began with the critically acclaimed Not Even Bones.

CAWPILECharactersNita does some growing. They stay Evil & there is no redemption for them Good growth for Nita in the end working with Adair. Chasing her dream of going to collegeFabricio - wow didn't expect any of that. that his dad is dead & he has the control is an Aur. He can flash brightly. Too caught up in the lies can't make stop lying.Kovit-changing becoming flexible still wants to hurt people. So he isn't redeemed at all, but potentially future Zannie's won't be under as much pressure Name goes up early on the list. Sister abadons him. Rightfully cause he's not sorry just sorry he was caughtLives because of Nitas blood. Trying to decide if it was better if he died.Nita's Mom: Dead. By Explosion. I was curious what was going to happen to her and I have to retract my previous liking of her. She went bad and fast. Founder of INHUP to allow herself to keep killing. Explosion so powerful nita's Muscles melted across the room behind a desk.AtmosphereThe Gruesome factor is definitely here. Nita throwing the motorcycle at the crowd. Dissection of Vampire. politician death of “fabricio's Father” well placed torture scenes.Great depiction of grief when Kovit is dying.WritingGood writing I loved the line that had all three book titles in it. Not Even Bones, Only Ashes remained, When Nita Rose. Wow. Fit the scene and was a neat touchPlotThe Plot goes pretty wild here, but that's cause everytime they make a move something changes. Only a couple of minor things against it. But setting themselves up to be free ahs always been the major goal of Nita and Kovit. A very fast paced book even during “downtime” Goes from Get the law to get protection to stop INHUP from releasing Kovit's info to stop INHUP completely. InvestmentI really had a hard time putting this book down. Seeing what would happen to our crew and how they would get out of it.LogicHead of Tuacahn law just walks to hotel meeting with no guards. Even if its someone you trust. He should be on guard. Lets murder 3 people in this one hotel room. I mean I get it, but still change it up a bit.EnjoymentThis book was an enjoyable read from start to finish. MiscI was WRONG, they aren't together, just Love of familial love not romantic. And I'm ok with it.Minor things. A 13 TB hard drive and you can carry it around inconspicuously. Yeah Right. Barely see HD going up to 10 and that's not as simple as just plugging it in. Tuacahn law was disappointing. Curious about Unicorns, if they have to eat souls. Is it like a once in a while thing how often really. That's a hard one say here's an alternative situation. But again no turning off food for zannie's. just bad
