In the third installment of Patricia Briggs's acclaimed Mercy Thompson series, coyote shapeshifter Mercy finds her loyalty severely tested when her former mentor, the powerful fae Zee, is unjustly implicated in a series of brutal murders on a fae reservation. Initially called upon to use her unique senses to track the killer, Mercy's investigation leads to a shocking twist when Zee is accused of murdering the suspect she helped identify. Abandoned by his own people and left to languish in prison, Zee's fate now rests in Mercy's capable hands. Against overwhelming odds and the deep-seated prejudices of both the fae and the human world, Mercy must race against time to uncover the truth and clear Zee's name, navigating a treacherous web of supernatural politics and ancient secrets. Meanwhile, her personal life grows increasingly complicated as the intense affections of two powerful werewolves, the alpha Adam and the enforcer Sam, push her towards a decision that could redefine her future.
