When she was sixteen, Joanna Archer was brutally assaulted and left to die in the Nevada desert.
By rights, she should be dead.
Now a photographer by day, she prowls a different Las Vegas after sunset—a grim, secret Sin City where Light battles Shadow—seeking answers to whom or what she really is . . . and revenge for the horrors she was forced to endure.
But the nightmare is just beginning—for the demons are hunting Joanna, and the powerful shadows want her for their own . . .
The New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Scent of Shadows, The Taste of Night, and The Touch of Twilight, Vicki Pettersson was born and raised in Vegas. She still lives in Sin City, where a backyard view of the Strip regularly inspires her to set down her martini and head back to the computer.
"The Scent of Shadows came out of nowhere and slapped me silly. . You're going to love this."

"...Read at your own risk -it'll keep you up past your bedtime."
