I think its a cute story. Kinda weird to be a skinwalker slash mechanic slash detective slash vampire slayer. The rich details of the deaths does brings the nausea up. The neat vampire politics brought the story well. Wish there were more Bran, Charles and Sam in it like Alpha and Omega. But no, the book is all about Mercy playing Nancy Drew. It doesn't sound that bad, you'll love it if you like a bit paranormal in your basic homicide crime.
