This took me a while to get into, but it was well-worth it. :) The main character, Mercy, is very likable but I felt the story didn't get going until half-way thru. There are lot of characters here who sort of come and go -- it makes them hard to keep track of -- but I think that will not be a problem as the series continues. Also, it didn't distract from the story at all.

This is a well-written book, with a good premise. Sort of a werewolf-based mystery. I love the author's take on werewolf culture; and her creativity with Mercedes particular brand of magic. The writing is crisp, welcoming and enjoyable. Her characters are nicely non-perfect, and all the more interesting for it. I am eagerly waiting for the next book because I think this is going to be a GREAT series to read.
