Mercy and the Pack were unaware of this until they met some in the midst of their investigation. Mercy (and therefore, we) are aware of a decent segment of the supernatural/paranatural population of the Tri-Cities area (although I think I remember her being surprised by some early on in the series)-she knows all the werewolves, many of the Fae, the goblins, vampires, etc.īut we learn along the way in this book that because of Mercy’s declaration a few books back that the area is under the Pack’s protection many “lower powered” supernatural beings have moved into the area for that protection. As she clearly intended, the answer Briggs gave us only leads to more questions.įor example: was this identity her plan when she first introduced the character? (likely, but I can see a scenario where it wasn’t) Given how this changes what we know about the world, when did she decide to shake things up to this extent? Lastly, when do we start seeing the ripple effects from this revelation? Okay, maybe one more: how many other things has she been lying to us about? (okay, that last one is a joke. He hasn’t changed that much.” I found that reassuring.Īfter a lot of speculation, we finally get to know Sherwood Post’s actual identity. “Did he sound like someone who was going to spill the beans to you?” I queried. Sure, this isn’t as strange as the miniature zombie goats, but it’s close. The paths seem to lead to a Fae artifact believed to have been destroyed and a local Urban Legend/subject of a new Horror movie. And Marsilia tasks Mercy with finding him, or she and the Pack will face the consequences (not life and death consequences, either-something worse).īut it’s not just Wulfe who’s missing-there are others, too. Wulfe continues to act strangely-for him, that is-as he was last time. But at least we solved one deadly situation before we picked up another one.” “We have another situation to replace it that might end up with Adam dead.
“The thing that we thought might end up with Adam dead looks like it will work out okay,” I told her dryly as her feet hit the ground again. Mystery/Detective Fiction/Crime Fiction/Thrillerīy Patricia Briggs DETAILS: Series: Mercy Thompson, #13.
