Description

When Mercy agrees to help out friend Stefan (a bloodsucker from the local vampire clan in the Tri-Cities area of Washington State), she has no idea that she is about to inadvertently come face-to-face with an otherworldly creature that epitomizes pure evil. After barely surviving her encounter with sorcerer Cory Littleton, Mercy — with the help of a small group of supernatural friends — vows to track down the mysterious Littleton before he can butcher more innocent people. Her mission is twofold: Not only will she stop a mass murderer from killing again but she will also (hopefully) protect the invaluable secrecy of the vampires who live in the Tri-Cities area. But can a shape-shifting mechanic with a thing for Volkswagen cars defeat a monstrosity powered by spirits from the depths of Hell?
Fans of authors like Laurell K. Hamilton, Charlaine Harris, and Kelley Armstrong who are looking for a comparable saga should definitely check out Briggs’s Mercy Thompson novels — a fast-paced, lighthearted series with well-developed characters and plenty of supernatural ghoulies that doesn’t take itself too seriously. *Buffy the Vampire Slayer* meets *Popular Mechanics*. *Paul Goat Allen*
