Under the rule of science, there are no witch burnings allowed, no water trials or public lynchings. In return, the average law-abiding, solid citizen has little to worry about from the things that go bump in the night. Sometimes I wish I was an average citizen... Mechanic Mercy Thompson has friends in low places-and in dark ones. And now she owes one of them a favor. Since she can shapeshift at will, she agrees to act as some extra muscle when her vampire friend Stefan goes to deliver a message to another of his kind. But this new vampire is hardly ordinary-and neither is the demon inside of him.

Mercy Thompson non è una creatura qualsiasi: cresciuta dai lupi mannari, può trasformarsi in un coyote in pochi attimi, il che la rende unica in un modo popolato da vampiri, troll, gremlin e licantropi. È un camminatore e nasconde la propria identità sotto il quotidiano lavoro di meccanizo. Un giorno si presenta nella sua officina un giovane mannaro, Mac, che non ha ancora imparato a controllare i propri poteri, e sulle cui tracce c'è un potente licantropo, per il quale Mac sembra fin troppo importante. Mercy chiede ad Adam, lupo mannaro alfa molto attraente, di proteggerlo, ma ben presto scoprirà di essere coinvolta in una guerra senza precedenti tra i clan dei non morti. E proprio allora dal passato di Mercy riapparirà un ex fidanzato che non vuole accettare cha tra loro sia finita...
