Possibly the best in the series. This was a delicious and slightly different story in the Psy-Changelings series. Judd Lauren is a Psy Arrow who despite his defection from the Psy-Net and Psy culture maintains the Silence, the complete control and removal of feeling - physical and emotional. However he can't help his connection to Brenna, the Changeling whom he helped rescue from a mad Psy serial killer (in book 1).
We are immersed in the Wolf Pack in this book and learn the backstory of the Lauren family. We get to know more about a few other wolves and especially Hawk, for whom this reader is eagerly awaiting Hawk's own book!
The book has a number of diversions into the mind of the bad guy of this story, into the business of the Psy and the Psy Council, and even some visits with Faith & Vaughn and Sascha & Lucas. While the visits with old favorites were pleasing, all the business with the Psy Council seemed superfulous and didn't add anything to the story. I presume Nalini Singh is building background for future story but it slowed the action and didn't seem to have anything to do with the main love story.
Judd is an interesting character because he is so hard and cold and unable/unwilling to leave the Silence. His abilities are scary and in his estimation very dangerous and only used for bad. His inexplicable attachment to and need for Brenna is compelling and his total alpha male, dominant personality is sexy.
The main difference in this book is that the build to the sexual aspect to the relationship took the entire book. There was almost no sensuality until the last few chapters. It was okay, it seemed like Singh had to develop these characters and their relationship carefully. But the pacing was different.
Overall another great addition to the Psy-Changelings series. Can't wait for the next.
