Clay and Elena are back! This story features the werewolf couple tracking a ’mutt’ (non-pack werewolf) to Alaska. While searching for him they find other werewolves missing, human murders, shape shifters from Native Alaskan legends, and a rogue pack of Russian bad guy werewolves. They have to find everyone, hand out justice, and not be killed, while missing their twin children. Elena also has to deal with being the pack Alpha’s successor while Clay is thinking about dismembering a mutt with a chainsaw and posting the video on the internet.

The best thing about this story is Elena has a strong character and doesn’t sit around waiting to be rescued – when one of the bad guys tries to rape her she kicks some serious werewolf butt. This book can be read as a stand-alone, though I would recommend the earlier Otherworld stories be read to give some background. Also because they are really good stories!
