The phone rang in the middle of the night.

Kate Daniels is a mercenary in magic torn Atlanta tasked to retrieve maps stolen from the Pack. The city is in the throes of a major magical flare that occurs every seven years. Kate becomes the guardian of a young girl, the seeker of a secret coven and next potential plaything for Curran, Lord of the Pack.

I'm not sure why I waited so long to read this book. It took me a bit to catch up with the storyline but once I did I loved it. Kate is mouthy, kickass and smart. Curran is brooding, scary and a bit smitten. The flare has unleashed gods and goddesses that should not be on the mortal plane. Interesting interaction between the characters. The description of Atlanta is stark and oh so real. The Oracle creeped me out or perhaps it was the giant turtle. I enjoyed the ever growing tension between Kate and Curran. Now I want to run out and read the next book in the series. A very good, solid read.
