By a Thread (Elemental Assassin, #6)

by Jennifer Estep

The sixth book in the USA TODAY bestselling Elemental Assassin urban fantasy series featuring Gin Blanco, who by day owns a Tennessee BBQ joint, and by night is a tough female assassin known as the Spider.

I never thought I’d need a vacation from being an assassin….

My name is Gin Blanco, and I’m the assassin the Spider. All the Ashland’s lowlifes are gunning for me and trying to make a name for themselves by taking out the Spider. So I think it’s a good idea to get out of Ashland for a while until things cool down.

So I’m headed south to a swanky beach town, along with my baby sister, Bria, for a weekend of fun in the sun. But when an old friend of Bria’s is threatened by a powerful vampire with deadly elemental magic, it looks like I’ll have to dig my silverstone knives out of my suitcase after all. But this time, not even my own Ice and Stone power may be enough to save me from coming home in a pine box…

These books are pretty addicting, however my only bitch about these books are that they are quite redundant in explaining things. Like in each book it explains this person in detail in each book, and then about the jewerly Bria where's and the drawings Gin has made. It's like ok it's the 6th book, I think we know all the details on each of these by now, or at least I hope we do. I generally skip through a good piece of the books because of that, because I get tired of reading the same thing over and over in each book. Otherwise this series is very enthralling to me, and I can't see to put them down.
