false 3430269 3 Welcome to Eileen Wilks’s world of the lupi, of “strange magic [and] fantastic realms,”* where some sins are so dark and unlikely, no one thought to forbid them… FBI agent Lily Yu is in North Carolina with her lover and mate Rule Turner, lu nuncio of the Nokolai werewolf clan, where he is to take custody of his son from the boy’s grandmother. It’s a purely personal trip until Rule, in wolf form, finds three bodies in a shallow grave. They carry the stench of death magic, which makes the murders a federal crime. Lily takes charge of the investigation, and soon realizes that nothing adds up—not the motives, not even the accused killer, who’s behind bars when death strikes again. But murder, however bizarre, is an everyday affair for Lily, who was a homicide cop before being recruited into the FBI’s Magical Crimes Division. A more personal shock arrives in the person of Rule’s son’s mother. Why is she challenging Rule’s long standing plan to bring his son to live among the Nokolai? But family must take a back seat when the violence escalates, and there’s no rhyme or reason for the killer’s next strike—a killer who may not even be of this world… 3471171 book 3 2 2009 Mortal Sins (The World of the Lupi, Book 5) total:138|5:50|4:60|3:25|2:2|1:1| 138 570 275 13 5 6 false false Wed Jan 28 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 28 16:37:37 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 31 10:58:20 -0800 2009 more...]]> 5 2 false false Sun Feb 08 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 06 05:19:43 -0800 2009 Sun Feb 08 09:29:44 -0800 2009 Mortal Sins was excellent and this series just keeps getting better and better.

I can't seem to figure out a way to give much more without spoilers, which wouldn't make any sense at all to those who are new to the World of the Lupi anyway.
