For one thing, I was glad to see that we, again, experienced the book through Mercy’s eyes, with only a few the interruptions of chapters from Adam’s perspective. I really liked this entry into the Mercy Thompson series. All just in another day for Mercy Thompson! On top of that, secrets in the pack are coming to a head. At the same time, an urban legend of a powerful, dangerous weapon wielded by a being called the Harvester is beginning to sound like a bit more than a myth.

The powerful and eccentric vampire, Wulfe, is missing and his mistress is also behaving strangely, tasking Mercy to find her lost vampire. A sentence no one wants to hear, especially not Mercy and her pack of werewolves who are responsible for the lives of everyone in the Tri City area. I’ve tried out a few things here and there, but how many of those reviews have you seen on this blog? Yeah…I think that says it all. Plus, I’m really getting pretty desperate about my urban fantasy situation.

I’ve always preferred this series to the “Alpha and Omega” companion series, and it’s been running on a high note for the last few books. Review: I’m always happy when I see another “Mercy Thomson” book coming my way. Previously Reviewed: “Moon Called,” “Blood Bound,” “Iron Kissed,” “Bone Crossed,” “Silver Borne,” “River Marked,” “Frost Burned,”and “Night Broken” , “Fire Touched” , “Silence Fallen”, “Storm Cursed” and “Smoke Bitten” Who is taking them? As Mercy investigates, she learns of the legend of the Harvester, who travels by less-trodden paths and reaps the souls that are ripe with a great black scythe. Until Wulfe vanished, all of them were powerless loners, many of whom quietly moved to the Tri-Cities in the hope that the safety promised by Mercy and Adam’s pack would extend to them as well. And these are not just ordinary people but supernatural beings. Someone is taking people from locked rooms, from the aisles of stores, and even from crowded parties. So Mercy goes out to find her stalker-and discovers more than just Wulfe have disappeared. The mistress of the vampire seethe informs Mercy that the pack must produce Wulfe to prove their innocence, or the loose alliance between the local vampires and werewolves is over. But when he disappears, the Tri-Cities pack is blamed. Since he’s deadly, possibly insane, and his current idea of “fun” is stalking Mercy, some may see it as no great loss.
