Synopsis

Wild Things sends a corrupted and unfamiliar strain of magic tearing through the North American Central Pack of shapeshifters, endangering members of the Pack who count among Merit's closest friends. Pack leader Gabriel Keene turns to Merit and Ethan Sullivan for help, drawing Cadogan House into a supernatural mystery that lies outside vampires' usual concerns. As Merit investigates what force is powerful enough to overwhelm a shifter, she is pulled into an unfamiliar kind of danger that tests the alliance between Chicago's vampires and shapeshifters, and asks her to protect people she cares about using both her combat training and her determination to see the threat through.

Notes

  • From the series record (Chicagoland Vampires): 13-novel main continuity; a spin-off sequence (Heirs of Chicagoland, starting Wild Hunger, 2018) follows a different protagonist and is kept out of Core for now.
