    About this audiobook

    A heart-wrenching tale of love and betrayal in the Black Dagger Brotherhood world from #1 New York Times bestselling author J. R. Ward.

    Framed for the grisly murder of his shellan, Kane is condemned to the notorious prison camp—unaware of the dark truth behind his arranged mating. Centuries later, when he is horribly burned while attempting to save others, he prays he’ll finally be reunited in the Fade with his mate…not knowing what revelations await him.

    Nadya is a self-taught nurse who does what she can to ease the suffering of the prisoners. When Kane comes under her care, she cannot help but empathize with his condition for very personal reasons—and as the guards take him away one last time, she fears he is facing a terrible death.

    After a daring rescue, Kane is offered a treatment that will change his very nature. Choosing life, for the time being, he goes back for the female who took such good care of him—but his duty to Nadya sets him on a collision course with his own past. When long-buried secrets are exposed, his self-destruction is inevitable…unless true love can save his soul.

      FRACKIN' AMAZING BOOK! Kane is back with a vengeance. The Viper is filled with lots of action, mystery, betrayal and romance. I love what JR did with Kane's character ...very creative. Also, nice the way that female who betrayed Kane was exposed but I was more than a little disappointed when there was no vengeance. If ever there was a reason to inflict righteous vengeance, this instance would be it.

      I love all the Brotherhood and just love it when they come together in this series. Even Payne plays a part in finding the Prison Camp. This is another great book in the series, and I can't wait for the next one.

      BUT!!!!!! When is JR going to wrap-up that unexpected little (really bigg) cliffhanger she left us involving Apex and his new friend??? Will we have to wait for next Prison Camp book????? Another year???? Noooooooo!!!! Please don't make us wait another year. Maybe you could work on book #4 to be published by Christmas 2022?
