Summary

The third novel in the international number one best-selling Mercy Thompson series - the major urban fantasy hit of the decade.

Mercy Thompson: Mechanic, Shapeshifter, Fighter.

It wasn't hard to follow the scent of blood to the living room where the fae had been killed. It had been a violent death, perfect for creating ghosts.

Mercy Thompson enjoys life as a mechanic, but life is never simple given her increasing closeness to the local werewolf pack, and her ability to change into coyote form at will. And when a member of the fae community calls in a favour, needing her skills for a covert murder investigation, she jumps into the hunt.

But the dangers multiply and she clashes with shadowed creatures of great power. When her old boss Zee is charged with a brutal assassination, Mercy find herself fighting alone. There are those who love her, who would keep her safe, but she is wary and holds her freedom precious. Until, that is, she has nothing left to lose but her life....

Critic reviews

"Brigg's third novel featuring [Mercy] Thompson (after Blood Bound) is another top-notch paranormal mystery; her well-balanced contemporary world, where humans live uneasily among werewolves and fae, is still a believably lived-in world; the ever-present." (Publishers Weekly)

Iron Kissed

This is a great whodunit where you can't trust anyone. Very emotional and touched on difficult subjects, very will done to. Read brilliantly again by Lorelei King.

Would've helped to have a TW

Good story but the dark TW element at the end took a lot of enjoyment out of it.

Brilliant story

The Mercy Thompson books are amazing, they are thought provoking, emotional and intense. It was narrated well and allows the readers imagination to flow along with the story, creating great imagery.

The only downside is that the audio seemed to miss out seconds then cut back in. I tried deleting and reinstall but made no difference.

Great but where are books 4-7?

Why on Earth does Audible have books 1-3 and 8 but not those in between?

Excellent

This is my favourite series and I listen to it regularly. Mercy is a great lead character and I enjoyed the development of Ben's character in this installment.
