I felt that this was one of the weaker Secret History books. It starts with what really felt like a stand-alone shirt story that offered tantalizing glimpses of Molly's history, but that glimpse was all we got for the rest of the novel. The remainder of the book dealt with Shaman's and Molly's infiltration into Casino Infernale and the Shadow Bank. It started off feeling somewhat formulaic, but there were some twists that kept it from becoming completely stale. (There unfortunately were some elements that were completely predictable, like flunkies turning traitor.) It was nice to see what Eddie was capable of without his torc, and it's always a pleasure to see Molly let loose, at least when she wasn't made nearly useless by far too frequent use of “null zones.” Overall a pleasurable read in the series but not up to the standards of previous books.
