 BETWEEN HEAVEN AND HELL, MAN AND DEMON, SHE’S ABOUT TO FACE THE ONE THING SHE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SURVIVE. Welcome to the world of Kara Gillian, a cop with a gift. Not only does she have the power of “othersight” to see what most people can’t even imagine, but she’s become the exclusive summoner of a demon lord. Or maybe it’s the other way around. The fact is, with two troublesome cases on her docket and a handsome FBI agent under her skin, Kara needs the help of sexy, insatiable Lord Rhyzkahl more than he needs her. Because these two victims, linked by suspicious coincidence, haven’t just been murdered. Something has eaten their souls.It’s a case with roots in the arcane, but whose evil has flowered among the rich, powerful, and corrupt in Beaulac, Louisiana. And as the killings continue, Kara soon realizes how much there’s still to learn about demons, men, and things that kill in the night—and how little time she has to learn it.    less

 Blood of the Demon is the 2nd book in the Kara Gillian series by Diana Rowland. In the 1st book, Mark of the Demon, we learn all about Kara who is a Summoner of Demons as well as a homicide detective. We also get to meet federal agent Ryan Kristoff and the demon Lord Rhyzkahl.
 
In Blood of the Demon, Kara is just back on the job after being on medical leave following her closing of the Symbol Man serial murder case. Kara is once again investigating a series of deaths only this time it appears that the victim's souls have been eaten. As Kara begins her investigation she runs into Agent Kristoff. However, he is not in town to work on the same case as Kara. Instead Kara seems to be somewhat on her own although she does receive some help from the demon Lord Rhyzkahl and Agent Kristoff. 

I really enjoy this series, I find it very refreshing and not easy to predict. So far both of the books in this series have been full of surprising twists and turns and endings that I did not figure out until nearly the end. Kara is an amazing character who is easy to relate to, she is sarcastic, insecure and hardworking. Blood of the Demon moves at a wonderful pace with no dragging points. Diana Rowland is fast becoming one of my favorite and must read authors and I am very much looking forward to the next book in this series.   hide

Diana Rowland's Blood of The Demon is an enjoyable sequel to Mark of The Demon, about Kara Gillian, a policewoman in Louisiana who also happens to have the ability to summon demons.

 Diana Rowland's Blood of The Demon is an enjoyable sequel to Mark of The Demon, about Kara Gillian, a policewoman in Louisiana who also happens to have the ability to summon demons.  The "demons" in the series are not intrinsically evil, likened more than once to aliens who merely happen to come from another dimension instead of another planet.

Like the first book, the plot revolves around homicide investigations which have mystical elements to them.  In this case, the murder victims--some of them set up as suicides, and all of them linked by blood relation and romantic ties--have had their "essence" ripped away in a way that Gillian has not seen before.  She also has to deal with her aunt Tessa, her teacher as a summoner, in a coma after losing her own essence in the previous book; the demon lord Rhyzkahl, who wants to take their relationship to the next stage; and FBI agent Ryan Kristoff, who has his own mystical ties, and whose relationship with Kara is somewhat complicated.  Rowland interweaves these plot threads capably, producing a fast-paced read with a satisfying conclusion, and a few mysteries left over for the next book.   hide
