In a world where supernatural beings live alongside humans, Mercy Thompson stands out as a unique coyote shapeshifter, a talent she's honed into a thriving mechanic business in Washington's Tri-Cities. Though raised by werewolves, her defiant independence and a forbidden love affair led to her estrangement from the pack, leaving her an outsider among her own kind. Her carefully constructed life takes a chaotic turn when a desperate, newly-turned teenage werewolf arrives at her garage, seeking work and a haven from his uncontrolled animalistic urges. Instinctively, Mercy reaches out to her formidable neighbor, Adam Hauptman, the powerful Alpha of the local werewolf pack, for assistance.
However, this act of compassion inadvertently thrusts Mercy into a dangerous web of supernatural politics and ancient rivalries. As the boundaries between her two worlds blur, she's forced to confront hidden threats and navigate complex alliances. When circumstances spiral out of control, Mercy finds herself with no choice but to seek help from the very werewolves who cast her out, forcing her to reckon with her past and fight for her present. 'Moon Called' is the electrifying debut that introduces a kick-ass heroine and plunges readers into a compelling urban fantasy landscape.
