This YA novel is set in a near future economically depressed Atlanta where demons are constantly attacking people and property. The guild of demon trappers works with the Vatican demon hunters to eraidicate them. Riley wants to be a trapper like her dad and is currently his apprentice. Things go wrong at the start of the book when the demons start working in tandem something that has never been seen before. Becasue of this behavior Riley's father dies while working with his journyman hunter, Beck.
I liked this because the setting seemed realistic and Riley doesn't have some magic skill to hunt demons just weapons, a few magic globes and holy Water. The book doesn't end on a cliffhanger but you know there will be more in the series due to not all questions being answered by the end of the book. I'll be looking to the next one.
I do have to note that I do know the author having spoke to her over the years at various SF conventions. And that I won this ARC from the Goodreads first reads program.
