Cauldron of Iniquity (Cloak and Dagger, 3)

Summary: Our tyro assassins are growing up...a bit.
Review: Well, Jen and Thib continue their pre-graduation assignments with a body guarding job in an environment of "total" corruption that reads rather tamely. Aunt Vera and Absalom are working on the same problem from another angle and all four assassins unite to find and eliminate the master drug lord. We see a lot more of Vera's past, although Absalom remains a mystery. Thib is growing in confidence and skills, while Jen learns a lesson the hard way. I would suggest to the author that she had better improve Jen quickly, if she intends to complete the Jen/Thib relationship. Thib is starting to recognize himself and his talents...Jen hasn't got much more than her good looks and her reflexes going for her. Not as good as the last entry in this series but still an interesting read.
