I put off listening to this story for a while because of a reviewer's criticism of how Stein portrays a vampire's attack as a kind of rape in which the victim ends up enjoying the act. But that's not exactly what happened, given that the vampire attacker uses his powers to make the victim think she's a willing participant. In other words, the victim doesn't actually enjoy the act but rather is almost drugged into responding a certain way.
Anyway, that part of the story is out of the way early enough that I felt relieved at how it was handled and enjoyed listening to the rest. I particularly liked the way other characters turn out not to be what they appear to be, although Avery's final "reveal" is a bit over the top.
I'm intrigued enough to put the next book on my list, particularly if I can get it through Scribd.
