Synopsis (Goodreads):
There are only thirty-six hours until Las Vegas will be daylighted by the witches of the Office of Preternatural Affairs. Thirty-six hours until every last vampire in Clark County gets ashed.

A serial killing vampire is taking advantage of every last one of those hours. His perverse game means mutilated vampire fledglings running amok, and it means there's only one vampire hunter who can catch him.

Dana McIntyre's getting out of prison to do what she does best.

And Nissa Royal is waiting to receive her with open arms.

The suicide queen's been dealt. The stakes are deadly. Now it's time to show their hands and find out who has the high card - and who will be winning the soul of Las Vegas.
Thoughts on Suicide Queen: Wowwwww. Dana's been through the wringer over the course of this series and she's still picking herself up and charging back into the thick of things. Like a surly, easily irritated tank. Honestly, I love how she just doesn't GAF about much of anything. Except Penny. And maybe some of her friends. And fighting vampires. Heck, even that last one's taken a hit as the series rolls on. You know, because of the whole turned-into-a-vampire thing. Oh, and the turned-back-to-human thing. And...well, let's just say things aren't always as cut and dried as one might think in Dana's world and leave it at that.

I'm going to take a moment to cackle over Cesar and how he's gone from a slightly bumbling witch who's allergic to magic in the PA series to the sparkly, debonair Undersecretary who's only getting involved in the issues going on in Vegas because he has to. I just...like the change. Even when he's being kinda douchey, he's fun. You know, in a burr under the skin sort of way.

This book nicely ties up the problem of Nissa and the bloodthirsty Vegas vamps. It gives Dana some closure AND a new mission (should she choose to accept it). Bonus, we got a really nasty big bad who did some totally terrible things (think Vlad the Impaler style leanings and you'll see where I'm going with this) for totally terrible reasons.

As always, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this wild ride!
