leventh book in the Otherworld series; tenth book on the women. The focus of this story is back on werewolves Elena and Clay.

Elena is chasing a mutt (werewolf not in the pack) across the country trying to save his life while he runs from her believing he'll be killed. The chase takes her to Alaska where a friend of Jeremy's appears to be missing, some men have been killed by wolves and three women have disappeared.

Clay struggles with a new generation of werewolves who no longer quake over his reputation, something cemented long ago when he tore a werewolf apart and took pictures for others to see. That one act kept a lot of mutts from challenging either him or Jeremy. Will he have to do something like that again to keep from having to fight all the time?

Elena is facing two struggles. One deals with memories of being helpless at the hands of a foster father and the other is Jeremy's plans for her. As the only adult female werewolf she's got to be that much tougher and show no weakness if she's to be accepted in her new role.

It's good to get back to Elena and Clay and see how much has changed for them and their relationship. Many years have gone by for them and their twins are now 3-1/2 years old. We have dialog with them over the phone. They are the first children born of two werewolves and no one knows yet what they're capable of. So it's not known by the readers if the sometimes more mature talk and actions of the twins is a result of their heritage or if the author is unfamiliar with children of that age.

The story contains a lot of action and we get to meet another type of creature and some more werewolves. I see a future story with one of them. All members of the pack make an appearance in this book.

This book can be read as a stand alone, but it is suggested that you at least read Bitten, Stolen, Broken and Men of the Otherworld for a better understanding of some things mentioned.
