Mercy Thompson has found her voice in the werewolf pack. But when Mercy's bond with the pack—and her mate—is broken, she'll learn what it truly means to be alone...
Attacked and abducted in her home territory, Mercy finds herself in the clutches of the most powerful vampire in the world, taken as a weapon to use against alpha werewolf Adam and the ruler of the Tri-Cities vampires. In coyote form, Mercy escapes—only to find herself without money, without clothing, and alone in the heart of Europe...
Unable to contact Adam and the rest of the pack, Mercy has allies to find and enemies to fight, and she needs to figure out which is which. Ancient powers stir, and Mercy must be her agile best to avoid causing a war between vampires and werewolves, and between werewolves and werewolves. And in the heart of the ancient city of Prague, old ghosts rise...

Headlines: The separation The longing Sneaky, clever Mercy
I loved this installment, one of my favourites of the series which is odd because I don't always like it when a couple is separated throughout the story. This one worked so very well. It opened straight into the action and the story got me completely on board, worried about Mercy, thinking how Adam would cope.
Vampires were the focus in the main for book 10 (10...how did I get here? This is how amazing this series is). Bad vampires were prevalent rather than some of the friendlies we've got to know in the series. There was a lot of mental strategy in this story which felt less reactive than some of the action storylines we've previously experienced. I enjoyed the European backdrop for the story rather than the normal Tri-Cities context, it made for a fresh feel.
The chapters were told in alternate Adam-Mercy style and Briggs did something different with the timeline on this one and somehow she made it work...well. The story brought all the couple feels, as a reader, I was longing beside Mercy and Adam.
