The sixth novel in the international No. 1 bestselling Mercy Thompson series – the major urban fantasy hit of the decade
‘I love these books!’ Charlaine Harris
‘The best new fantasy series I’ve read in years’ Kelley Armstrong
MERCY THOMPSON: MECHANIC, SHAPESHIFTER, FIGHTER
Car mechanic Mercy Thompson has always known there was something different about her, and not just the way she can make a VW engine sit up and beg. Mercy is a shapeshifter, a talent she inherited from her long-gone father. And she’s never known any others of her kind. Until now.
As Mercy comes to terms with this new information, an evil is stirring in the depths of the Columbia River. Something deadly is coming, facts are thin on the ground and Mercy feels ill at ease. However, her father’s people may know more. To have any hope of surviving, Mercy and her mate, the Alpha werewolf Adam, will need all the resources the shifters can offer. Or death will be the least of their worries.
A fast-paced adventure featuring the ingenious and appealing Mercy Thompson – mechanic, trouble-magnet and coyote shapeshifter.
Praise for the series:

‘I enjoyed every minute of it. I love Mercy and can’t wait for her to kick some more ass’ Lilith Saintcrow

The best new fantasy series I've read in years
I love these books!
If you are looking for your next series to start, I highly recommend Alpha & Omega. Intense action, heartbreaking moments, sexy romance, and pages filled with sly humor. You can't go wrong with that!
A pulse pounding, action filled climax that had us holding our breath. I totally recommend you to read this series, especially if you enjoy wolf stories, and a great couple. I want more of Charles and Anna
Briggs' heroine Mercy Thompson stands out ...This mixture of monsters, myth, metamorphosis and magic seasoned with travelogue is handled with skill and the necessary conviction
