Yet Dakota isn’t invincible, behind the bravado she is ill-equipped to defend herself and when she becomes the target of a serial killer we learn of her physical and emotional vulnerability. Dakota identifies her self as a Skindancer – her tattoo’s are more than just art, she has the ability to make her tattoos live, the vines that adorn her body can create an impenetrable barrier, the butterfly on her wrist can flap it’s wings and flutter around the room and the dragon that is wrapped sinuously around her entire body will save her life.
I love Dakota, she is feisty and confident and is a little different from the usual urban fantasy heroine.

Can she find the killer on the dark fringe of the city’s Edgeworld? Among its powerful outcasts and tortured loners, what kind of enemies and allies will she attract? Will they see her as an invader, as a seducer, as an unexpected champion … or as delicious prey? When a serial killer begins stalking Atlanta’s tattooed elite, the police and the Feds seek Dakota’s help. She’s the best magical tattooist in the southeast, a Skindancer, able to bring her amazing tats to life.
