Preying for Mercy
(2008)(A book in the Mercy Thompson series)
An omnibus of novels by Patricia Briggs
Kennewick, Washington car mechanic Mercy Thompson doesn't exactly have a normal life. Her next-door neighbor is a werewolf. Her former boss is a gremlin. And she's fixing a VW bus for a vampire. But then, she's not exactly normal herself. Because Mercy Thompson is a walker - a shape-shifter who can change into a coyote at will....
MOON CALLED: When Mercy's repair shop becomes the hideout of choice for a young runaway werewolf, she's thrust into a power-struggle between packs that threaten to out them all in a way that could get them killed.
BLOOD BOUND: Mercy agrees to act as extra muscle when a vampire friend delivers a message to another of his kind. But this new vampire has a demon inside, a sorcerer who's wreaking havoc on Washington's Tri-Cities. And Mercy's pulled into the fray.
IRON KISSED: Mercy can shift her shape but not her loyalty. Her mentor/boss has been arrested for killing a citizen of the fae reservation. And since the fae - his own kind - seem content to let him rot behind bars, it's up to Mercy to clear his name... and that could cost her her life.
In the increasingly crowded field of kick-ass supernatural heroines, Mercy stands out as one of the best.
Genre: Urban Fantasy
