This was a let down. It's one of my least favorite stories in the series. The overall quality of writing is not as good as other Breeds books. Both characters here are unlikable. Their relationship is incredibly messed up. He's well-meaning, but constantly does things to hurt her. She's supposedly smart, but is physically abusive to him, and far too accepting of the emotional damage he does to her. They bicker constantly. It's scene after scene of angst. After putting her through hell and basically putting her life in danger, he apologizes to her. It takes many chapters to get to this point and what does she do with the apology? She pretty much tells him he doesn't need to apologize. She understands why he did the things he did. At that point, I wanted to throw the book against a wall, but I didn't because I'm a good PBS member who wants to swap this book with someone else. The only thing I liked about this book is the glimpse we get into coyote society.
