Mercedes "Mercy" Thompson is a talented Volkswagen mechanic living in the Tri-Cities area of Washington. She also happens to be a walker, a magical being with the power to shift into a coyote at will. Mercy's next-door neighbor is a werewolf. Her former boss is a gremlin. And she's fixing a bus for a vampire. This is the world of Mercy Thompson, one that looks a lot like ours but is populated by those things that go bump in the night. And Mercy's connection to those things is about to get her into some serious hot water...


Very similar in style to Kelley Armstrong's "Women of the Otherworld" series. Well-written and engaging enough to keep me nicely entertained. I found it nicely contained though, so feel no need to rush out and read the rest of the series. Besides, Adam and Samuel's rivalry annoyed me, and I foresee a love triangle in the future, which I'd prefer to avoid.
