Rating: 4 out of 5 Stars

From Back Cover of Book: Three hundred years ago, she sold her soul to a demon. Now she wants it back. For centuries, the woman calling herself Maliha Crayne has lived a second life—as an assassin for the malevolent creature who owns her soul. A haunted killer with the blood of countless victims on her hands, she has finally discovered a way to nullify the demonic pact that chains her: If she saves a life for every one she has taken, she will be free. But if she fails, her punishments will be unspeakable, unendurable . . . and neverending.

This is the first book in the Mortal Path series. Maliha made a deal with a demon so that she may live after being falsely accused of witchcraft. After fighting for years she learns that she can change her ways. Now she works to go against the demon who is waiting for her to fail. The story is a little jumpy when we see things that happen in the past to present. But it all works together. Maliha is a great character as you watch her from the very beginning to what she is now trying to do. The supporting cast is also very well written. I really enjoyed reading this book and look forward to reading the next one, Sacrifice.
