Car mechanic Mercy Thompson has always known there was something different about her, and not just the way she can make a VW engine sit up and beg. Mercy is a shapeshifter, a talent she inherited from her long-gone father. And she's never known any others of her kind. Until now. As Mercy comes to terms with this new information, an evil is stirring in the depths of the Columbia River. Something deadly is coming, facts are thin on the ground and Mercy feels ill at ease. However, her father's people may know more. To have any hope of surviving, Mercy and her mate, the Alpha werewolf Adam, will need all the resources the shifters can offer. Or death will be the least of their worries.

Of course honeymoon couldn't be without monsters (or devil). Again fun and easy to read. And I really liked that we get to know a little more about Mercy's Indian heritage.
The writing and characters are still very good, but there is clearly no plot worth telling. The author went on on a mystic rampage about Indian native myths. Almost a 3.
Briggs never fails to please. This time we get to see Mercy and Adam on their own, away from the pack. It's a very different dynamic, and a nice change of pace. Highly recommended!
I've enjoyed the series and the novel approach to urban fantasy using Native American legends with our more traditional werewolves and vampires. This one incorporates Coyote, Old Man, Wolf, Thunderbird, and other mythical figures into the engaging plot. Mercy and Adam are on their honeymoon when an ancient and magical river monster starts eating families. The book answers many questions about Mercy's family and history satisfactorily.
