Publisher Description
Sometimes revenge is the road to salvation.
Louie Thorne understands this. When her parents were brutally shot dead in their home, Louie found the strength to go on only by armoring herself with the quest for vengeance. She found the criminals that took everything from her—and ended their lives—despite what it cost her.
So when fellow huntress Diana Dennard crosses Louie's path, in pursuit of a dangerous pedophile, Louie refuses to interfere. She understands the need governing Diana's every move—even if the woman's methods toe the line of madness.
As Lou is dragged into Diana's hunt, Diana's mask slips. The game turns dark. Suddenly the bad guys aren't Diana's only target and Lou finds herself between a dangerous and conniving psychopath and the ones she loves.
Will Louie's dark power be enough to protect them? Or will the coldest heart win…

Customer Reviews
Dr Thorne and Mr Dennard. Lou’s moral dilemma !
I have read all of this series now, but slightly out of sequence. 6,1,2,3,4 & now this one 5. I really liked Kory’s Dying for a Living series, but this one is probably better. In a strange way reading Devil’s Luck last seems ok. It is where Lou gets to question her own morality when confronted by her Mr Hyde opponent introduced in the last book Diane Dennard. The book itself flows better than some of the others as it has a continuous unified storyline. The supporting characters create some interesting moments and continue to be a big part of these stories, which is a good thing. Is Lou any better than Diane or just the other side of the same coin ? Can you ever justify killing someone ? A good read and I have probably enjoyed this book the most in the series so far. Two psychos for the price of one !
