Overview
I know that better than most. Since rejoining the Pride, I've made big decisions and even bigger mistakes: the kind paid for with innocent lives. As the first and only female enforcer, I have plenty to prove to my father, the Pride and myself. And with murdered toms turning up in our territory, I'm working harder than ever, though I always find the energy for a little after-hours recreation with Marc, my partner both on and off duty.
But not all my mistakes are behind me. We're beginning to suspect that the dead are connected to a rash of missing human women and that they can all be laid at my feetβtwo or four, take your pick. And one horrible indiscretion may yet cost me more than I can bear.β¦

Werecat Faythe Sanders is an enforcer for her father's Pride of shapechangers. When several male "strays"-prideless werecats-turn up dead, Faythe and her brothers go on the prowl, unaware that their discoveries will bring to light some of Faythe's darkest secrets and threaten her life. The second installment of Vincent's urban fantasy series (after Stray) features a well-thought-out vision of werecat social structure as well as a heroine who insists on carving her own path, even if it means breaking some of her society's most sacred taboos. Some explicit sex and numerous scenes of violence may limit the appeal, but fans of urban fantasy should enjoy this title.
