Martyr's Promise: A Paranormal Mystery Romance (Elemental Covenant Book 2) Kindle Edition
Sometimes it takes a monster to hunt a monster.
When Summer Mackenzie and her boyfriend disappear in the fog-shrouded forests of Northern California, it sets off more than one alarm. The sheriff’s department is looking for them, the state rangers are on their trail, and even private security companies have gotten involved.
But Summer wasn’t an ordinary college student; she was a human born into the immortal Mackenzie clan, a line of powerful vampires from the Great Smoky Mountains. Now Carwyn ap Bryn and Brigid Connor are getting messages from allies across the world, old rivals, and new friends, all wanting to know where Summer is and why hikers along the Lost Coast keep going missing.
If Brigid and Carwyn can’t find Summer, tensions between vampire clans might snap, leaving more than just the immortal world bloody.
They might know how to search the wilderness, but the Northern California woods hold more than the average share of mysteries. Secretive immortals, suspicious humans, and ancient myths are all at home in a land where human highways come to a dead end and dense forests meet a rugged coast.
Martyr’s Promise is a paranormal mystery in the Elemental Covenant series by Elizabeth Hunter, USA Today best-selling author of A Hidden Fire, Suddenly Psychic, and over forty other works of fantasy fiction.

Review
—Kylie Scott NYT Bestselling Author
This book took me on a suspense filled journey that once I started I didn't want to stop... A must read, loved it recommendation from me!
—Bourbon, Books, and Brenda
I highly recommend this book, and even if you have not read all the books in this universe, you can read this and enjoy it immensely. Elizabeth Hunter has mastered the paranormal, urban fantasy suspense novel like no one else I've read.
—Beautiful Chaos Reviews
This book is perfection!
—Jaime, Goodreads reviewer
This story had heart pounding intensity and sweet harmony written in flawless execution.
—This Literary Life
If you haven't met Brigid and Carwyn yet, you really should get on that.
—Sassafrack, Goodreads reviewer
This installment in the Elemental Covenant Series is a beautiful combination of mystery, romance, and survival. ...a captivating story from start to finish.
—Norma's Nook
Well, that book was INTENSE. I knew to expect it to be amazing and I wasn't let down.
—Alison, Goodreads reviewer
Is it too cheesy to call this an explosive new series? Because, well... as it turns out, when you have a fire and an earth elemental vampire teaming up to solve a mystery, things can get... rocky.
—Kathryn, Goodreads reviewer
Martyr's Promise is a homerun. It started with a bang and continued that pace throughout the entire book. It was truly a fast paced page turner.
—G.M., Goodreads reviewer

We are introduced to another clan, a past vampire villain, and Carwyn and Brigid get to hang out with Baojia and Natalie, can we get a hand clap... yipee!!! Do you remember a mention of Katya..... well, we also get to meet her and find a little more about her.
This was a case of being sucked in right from the beginning with Summer and Dani, and finding out really quickly about Summer and her ties to the immortal world. You will have to read the book to find out the rest, but you will not be disappointed. This is action packed, fast paced and a journey into self discovery for one person. There is an opening for another storyline at the end of this book, and I wonder if and how that will come about.
How Elizabeth Hunter comes up with these ideas is beyond me, but the words just rise off the page and build a world around you as if you were living in the book yourself. Everything she writes is immersive, and your surroundings disappear. She is a true artist at her craft, and her books will abduct you and then spite you out at the end, leaving you disoriented and wanting back in. Marty's Promise will do that to you. Highly recommend.
Serves me right for doubting: as it turns out, it can get quite challenging, especially when the people in question vanish into the misty, isolated stretches of woods around the appropriately named Lost Coast. With no suspects, few motives, too much territory to search, and two powerful vampire clans invested in the outcome, Brigid and Carwyn have their work cut out for themselves. And their enemy’s motivations are even more sinister than it first seems…
Overall, Martyr’s Promise is a great, nerve-wracking-in-the-absolute-best-way ride. I threw my phone, I screamed into pillows, it was delightful.
For those who’ve read Saint’s Passage, I do want to say that this story runs at a much faster, more action-packed pace (which I really loved). There’s a slightly sinister edge to the forest setting that keeps the tension running through much of the book, but it works without ever making things too scary. And then the scenes from Summer’s perspective brought a whole NEW level of tension to the story, which I really, really enjoyed.
I also loved that we got to peek more into the background of the mysterious Katya...as well as learning some intriguing details of a few other, surprise characters.
And of course, it’s Elizabeth Hunter writing Carwyn and Brigid: the banter is perfectly ridiculous, and delightfully on point, right up until you get hit with some incredibly lovely, beautiful line that speaks directly to the soul.
Thrilled as always to have had a chance to read an early copy of this. 10/10, can’t wait for the next adventure!

Sicher hat jeder Leser sein Lieblings
Paar meins war und ist B. + K.
Ich mochte auch Brigid +C. aber so
wirklich eingefangen hat mich erst dieses Buch. Konnte es nicht zur Seite
legen. Habe es in einem durchgelesen,
jetzt lese ich es noch einmal langsam und aufmeksamer durch. Manchmal möchte man sofort alle Neuigkeiten
wissen,und dann fragt man noch einmal nach damit man ja nichts verpasst. Dieses Buch ist für mich
so eine Neuigkeit. Werde alle Bücher
mit den beiden nochmal lesen. 👍🤗

In this instalment of this clever and exciting series we see them solving a disappearance of a young woman and her boyfriend. As always that’s just the surface of what’s going on.
New characters emerge and old ones pop in.
I just love how you come away from reading feeling like you have been in the location of the story. I could see those redwoods.
If you haven’t read the first book it’s ok it can be read standalone, but why deny yourself the excitement of these amazing characters that Ms Hunter gives us.
