To say that Mercy is a magnet for trouble would be an understatement. After being magnificently back-stabbed by her step-daughter in an online game of pirates, Mercy moves to the kitchen to make some of her famous chocolate chip cookies, only to find that the werewolves have eaten most of her cookie-making supplies. On her way back from the corner store, her vehicle is rammed, she's drugged, taken hostage, and flown to Italy where the Lord of the Night - leader of the European vampires and Stephen's former master - wants to know why she is the most dangerous person in the tri-cities. What follows will be chases and escapes, foreign packs, cobblestone streets that are hard on coyote paws and an adventure only made better by the alternating narrators. Yes - this book follows both Mercy and Adam as they try to reconnect and prevent a war between Europe and North America in the process. It was great fun to see the cast and characters from Adam's perspective and to also get a glimpse of his regard for Mercy, whose own opinion of herself never truly reflects what a heroine she is. I could not have asked for a more enjoyable book. I love the inherent humor of Brigg's writing - especially in the mini descriptors at the beginning of each chapter. Another great addition to the series. For fans of Ilona Andrews.
