Life is way too complicated for half-human, half-werewolf Lia de Croissets. Her employers, the War Mages, are in the middle of a magical war, many of her colleagues are walking wounded, her own powers are flaring up erratically, and a magical tattoo of unknown powers has attached itself to her skin.<br>
That's not all. . . someone is murdering and skinning werewolves, and it looks like her lover Cyrus could be the next victim. Finding Cyrus by using their newly-discovered mate bond takes her on a journey through the underworld of Las Vegas.<br>
But that's still not the end of the trouble. Now she has to prevent the murder of the leader of all the werewolves.
