YA
In retaliation for Sarah's transformation (Shattered Mirror), her vampire-hunter family declares war against vampires--including Sarah herself. Her sister faces the difficult choice of disobeying orders or executing Sarah. This installment is best suited for series fans; taking place in twenty-four hours, the fast-paced plot can be difficult to follow and allows for little development of characters or the world's parameters.
