The second of the Mercedes Thompson series follows our heroine as she gets herself mixed up in mysteries and murder. Owing Stephan, the vampire, a favour means she finds herself caught up in a dangerous world but she is a strong character who can hold her own. Throw in a bit of romance and you have yourself an entertaining read that leaves you looking forward to the next instalment.
Like most people who own their own business, I work long hours that start early in the morning. So when someone calls me in the middle of the night, they’d better be dying …
Mechanic Mercy Thompson is woken at 3am by a vampire calling in a favour. He has to deliver a message to a fellow undead and needs a witness that won’t be noticed - and Mercy’s shapeshifting abilities make her the perfect candidate.
But the assignment turns into a bloodbath and Mercy attracts the attention of not just a powerful vampire, but the even more powerful demon possessing him. She can count on the supernatural community for protection - and alpha werewolf Adam would like her to rely on him in other ways too - but when it comes to being proactive, she’s on her own.
'Plenty of twists and turns . . . Kept me entertained from its deceptively innocent beginning to its can't -put-it-down end' Kim Harrison, bestselling author of Dead Witch Walking
