(review in english after the portuguese one)
Sinopse: Vampires don't get happily ever afters.Jack Valentine finally has her shit together. She has a great job, great friends (well, one at least) and a girlfriend whom she loves, even if she can't work up the courage to tell her that yet. Unfortunately, she also has an archnemesis who's about to punish her crimes in the worst possible way: by making her spend time with him.Which she could cope with, maybe, if she didn't have problems at work as well. When the body of a human judge is found in a locked library, there's no denying that she was murdered by one of the Silver – by a vampire – and the evidence points worryingly close to home. If that wasn't bad enough, some of Jack's least favourite people are opening a new blood bar in Oxford with questionable motives. For Jack and her team, it's becoming increasingly hard to separate allies from enemies.With conspiracies on every side, the simmering tensions in Silver society are about to come to a head. As usual, Jack intends to be right in the middle of it. She does like it when things get messy.Judgement Day is the second book in Josie Jaffrey’s Seekers series, an urban fantasy series set in Oxford, England.

Agradeço à autora pela cedência deste ebook em troca de uma opinião honesta. 😊
Judgment Day é o segundo livro da série Seekers (opinião do primeiro livro - May Day - AQUI) e foi uma surpresa!
Teve um início lento e "demasiado policial" para o meu gosto, contudo, cheio de determinadas situações que nos levam a ficar curiosos com o rumo que a história vai tomar.
Então, para um pouco de enquadramento: A Jacqueline “Jack” Valentine é Silver (vampira) há 20 anos, mas em anos de vampira ainda é considerada novata. A Jack trabalha nos Seekers, um género de polícia judiciária dos vampiros, cujo propósito é manter em segredo dos humanos a existência destes seres sobrenaturais.
Adoro que a Jack seja uma mulher forte e independente, mas que por outro lado ainda se debata com aquilo que quer para a sua vida e que isso a faça estar constantemente a crescer e a aprender com os seus erros.
E o slow burn? Uii 
Se no livro passado já ficámos agarrados ao fantástico triângulo amoroso da Jack com o Drake e a Tabitha, neste livro ficamos completamente indecisos sobre quem devemos shipar com a Jack.
Adoro este mundo e a forma como é tudo criado! E mais: quando li este livro tinha acabado de ler a saga Solis Invicti, cuja história se passa depois da série Seekers, e estava com um pó ao Benedict que não podia nem ver a menção a esta criatura que já me enervava...! É por isso que considero a escrita da Josie extremamente envolvente, sou capaz de sentir tanta empatia e carinho por umas personagens e ódio extremo por outras!
Com este livro conseguimos suspeitar quem dará a cara no próximo livro e como se intrometerá na vida de Jack e estou empolgadíssima para ler essa continuação (para quando Josie?).
