Sinopse (Skoob):
Briggs makes a well-deserved move
into hardcover with the rousing fourth adventure for kick-ass were-coyote auto
mechanic Mercedes Thompson. Healing in body and spirit after the events of
2008's Iron Kissed, Mercy is preparing to marry alpha werewolf Adam Hauptman
when an old friend asks her to help fend off a nasty ghost. It's a good time
for Mercy to leave Portland, Ore.: vampire queen Marsilia is after her and her
vampire friend Stefan for successfully hunting down a monster that should have
killed them. Mercy leaves Adam to negotiate peace with Marsilia and heads to
Spokane, Wash., to investigate the ghost, an unexpectedly complicated task.
Though action supersedes characterization, the preternatural culture of vampire
seethes and wolf pack politics is deeply intriguing. Briggs provides plenty of
detail about Mercy's complex world without boring info-dumps, satisfying both
new and longtime readers.
