Richard was an alpha werewolf. It was his only serious flaw. We d broken up after I d seen him eat somebody.‘

You never forget your ex-fiance. And when the call came at three in the morning, I thought for a moment it was him. It wasn t. It was his brother. And it wasn t good news.

Apparently the former love of my life had got himself thrown into jail for assaulting a woman. Since I make my living as a preternatural expert, I tend to believe almost anything s possible. But though he may be one of the monsters, Richard would never harm a woman. So it s Anita Blake to the rescue. I ve got just a few days to spring Richard and find out who framed him
and why. There s a full moon coming, and if my werewolf love is still behind bars when it rises, he ll be facing a lot worse than an assault charge…
