YA
Jenn (Crusade) and her team of hunters seek other vampire-fighting resistance groups. Jenn struggles to hold onto hope while supernatural soldiers attack and reformed vampire/love interest Antonio returns to his old murderous ways. Many backstories and perspective shifts sometimes cause the plot to lag, though the previous volume's unusual but organic blend of mysticism and Catholicism continues to be effective here.
