Retribution

by Sherrilyn Kenyon

Part of Dark-Hunter, book 19

First published 2011

William Jessup Brady once lived as a hired gunslinger who believed every life had a price. Brutal betrayal cost him everything, including his own life. A Greek goddess brought him back as an immortal Dark-Hunter, trading his soul for vengeance and binding him to protect humanity forever. Now Jess hunts a killer who targets Dark-Hunters systematically. He discovers the assassin is Abigail Yager, a human woman raised by vampires after being orphaned as a child. Her vampire family taught her that Dark-Hunters prey on both vampires and humans, making them enemies to destroy. Abigail has spent years eliminating Dark-Hunters while training to face the man she believes murdered her parents: Jess Brady. When they finally meet, Abigail bears a striking resemblance to the person who actually killed Jess centuries ago. Jess knows he never killed her family, but Abigail refuses to believe his claims. An angry god forces them together while ancient enemies pursue them both. They must overcome their mutual hatred or watch a dark power rise and destroy both races they have sworn to protect.
