Book Review of Destined for an Early Grave (Night Huntress Universe #4) by Jeaniene Frost

Destined for an Early Grave is the fourth book in both the Night Huntress series and Night Huntress Universe.

Cat and Bones are long overdue for a vacation, but their trip to Paris is interrupted as Cat begins to have dreams about a vampire named Gregor. He has ties to Cat's past that she doesn't remember and claims a hold on her that may supplant Bones's.

But one vampire holds the key to defeat Gregor, and Cat and Bones must turn to Mencheres once again.

For Cat, this is a fight for everything she holds dear.

This book contained many surprising twists and turns, though I'm not overly fond of it. Some elements I found slightly over the top, and the plot felt like it jerked rather than a smooth turn. It at times felt slightly outlandish for the established world which took me out of the plot.

Nevertheless, I was enthralled for another installment in Cat and Bones's saga. The ending was satisfying for me even though the plot wasn't the best. A couple of the twists were long-awaited, and I enjoyed their arrival. One in particular.

A weaker addition to the series, though I was glad for another addition. Considering the quality of the previous three books, I'll take this one and move on to what I'm sure will be better work.
