About this ebook

Mercy Thompson, car mechanic and shapeshifter, faces a threat unlike any other in this thrilling entry in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

I am Mercedes Athena Thompson Hauptman.
My only “superpowers” are that I turn into a thirty-five pound coyote and fix Volkswagens. But I have friends in odd places and a pack of werewolves at my back. It looks like I'm going to need them.

Centuries ago, the fae dwelt in Underhill—until she locked her doors against them. They left behind their great castles and troves of magical artifacts. They abandoned their prisoners and their pets. Without the fae to mind them, those creatures who remained behind roamed freely through Underhill wreaking havoc. Only the deadliest survived.

Now one of those prisoners has escaped. It can look like anyone, any creature it chooses. But if it bites you, it controls you. It lives for chaos and destruction. It can make you do anything—even kill the person you love the most. Now it is here, in the Tri-Cities. In my territory.

It won't, can't, remain.

Not if I have anything to say about it.

This is what I'm talking about, I love Mercy adventures. Once I start reading, I can stop till the end. I don't think Patricia Briggs can write them fast enough for me. Please keep Mercy stories coming. I live in Portland and I know exactly what she's talking about when she says a specific location. Thank you for this, Patricia Briggs you give good book.

Another explosively good Mercedes story. Mercy has not only her own issues to deal with but that of her pack and her mate. Adam hasn't been himself since they killed the witches including their pack witch Elizaveta. Now they have someone body-snatching and it involves none other than the Fae. Everything that happens in this story is sticky and keeps our Mercy on her toes. Absolutely one of my favorites thus far and anticipating what or who is next. **I read this book via my Local Library and I am voluntarily leaving my honest review of this book**

Was always, Patricia Brigg's novels leave me waiting for more. The universe she build for Mercy keeps getting bigger and more complex. I love it! This time Mercy encounters a new adversary that is more trixy than the usual Fae, werewolves, witches, and otherworldly creatures and powers. Will our girl save the world, or at least the Tri-Cities area of it? Yes, she can! With all of the love in her heart, she will defeat the monsters, take care of the children, and still manage to have time to fix cars.
