The new master vampire of Cincinnati has arrived . . . and she wants Rachel Morgan out. No matter where Rachel goes, Constance is there--threatening Rachel's allies, causing city-wide chaos, and, to add insult to injury, even forcing Rachel out of her current quarters. Ever since Rachel found a way to save the souls of vampires, the old undead's longtime ascendancy has been broken. Now Constance sees eliminating Rachel as the key to consolidating her own power.
Rachel has no desire to be enthralled or killed--and she's terrified of what may become of the city if Constance forces a return to the ancient ways. But even a witch-born demon can't stand against the old undead--at least, not alone. And if Rachel refuses to claim the role of Cincinnati's master demon, the city will tear itself apart, taking her and all those who stand beside her with it.

Master vampire Constance has come to take over Cinncinati and get rid of Rachel for good. Rachel has been doing pretty good getting the demons integrated to society and now she has to face down someone else trying to kill her. Constance slowly works to take away everything from the other Inderlanders of the city. Leaving many, including Rachel without homes. What Rachel doesn’t know is that she is walking into taking the role of Cincinnati’s subrosa for the demons. Constance and Rachel can’t rule together. Rachel is going to have to find a way to beat Constance. I really liked how Rachel took care of Constance. It leaves options open and possibly keeps more of DC’s vamps away.
Rachel is still dealing with the problem of Hodin and Al. Hodin promises things that Rachel really wants, but Al will not talk to her is she supports Hodin. I’m really disappointed that Rachel is dealing with Hodin. I want her to be true to Al. She’s been through so much crap with Al.
I feel like there was a lot going on. Constance caused problems in so many areas of Rachel’s life. Even doing little things like keeping all contractors away from the church. It was craziness. Rachel does have a tendency to give people the benefit of the doubt. I’m looking at Pike and Dali here. Somehow it works for her a lot of the time. I think this unknown about things Rachel plans or people she lets in keeps the suspense rolling through the story. Million Dollar Demon kept rolling from problem to problem keeping the interest from waning too much. I have found that Rachel is getting a little more confident and not as whiny as I used to find her. Maybe she does have it in her to be Cincinnati’s subrosa.
