I did not get to finish the book, however, from what I have read, I have really enjoyed the book. The Dark Days Pact is a very page gripping type of book. I found not starting at the beginning of the series to be quite confusing and maybe if I had I would have more sympathy and understanding towards the main character. This book wouldn't be one I would choose myself and the front cover isn't particularly inspiring.

It has attention to detail and possibly would be enjoyed by people who enjoy historical fiction and fantasy, although to anyone interested in this book I would recommend reading the first book first. The story of this book seems to be well-researched and authentic. Helen must make a difficult decision between duty and devotion. Meanwhile, the Duke of Seburn is determined to protect her at all costs. Helen is keen to complete her training, but is torn between her loyalty to Carlston and the orders of the Home Office (government), who want to use her skills and talents for their own agenda. Her mentor, Lord Carlston, believes that a Grand Deceiver has arrived in England, and he needs to prepare Helen immediately to fight it. The protagonist is Lady Helen Wrexhall and she is continuing her Reclaimer training to prepare for her duties as a fully-fledged member of the Dark Days Club. It is set in Brighton, in July 1812, in the time known as the Regency. It combines the high society of 19 th century England with supernatural underworld.īeing the second book in a series of three, I found it quite confusing as to what the reader was expected to already know characters' backgrounds, relevance of events, etc. This book is the second of the Lady Helen trilogy.
