Jesse James' goes on a quest to locate her missing bounty hunting parents in this interesting adult urban fantasy.

I have some mixed feelings about Pawn. The world building and story progression was the perfect blend of tension-filled and interesting to keep me reading well into the night. While I liked Jesse's quest and her hunter abilities, I found myself puzzling over her personality. She seems rather bland and boring despite all of the interesting things she does and discovers. The connections she builds with other characters, particularly Lukas and his squad, was the best part of the novel. The romance is not very pronounced in this book - I suspect we will not get much development with it until the second or third books.
