This is one of the rare books in this series that doesn't revolve around Anita's need to have sex with multiple partners. She, Edward, Bernardo and Olaf get to play marshal in Tacoma Washington where a brutal serial killer (actually the Harlequin) is taking out lone weretigers. The Harlquin take orders from the Mother of All Darkness and she wants to possess Anita forever. This is an exciting story of Those Who Cannot Be Named (The Harlequin) apparently to name them results in your death and the death of anyone you told. They are freakish human beings with incredible powers who come and go like smoke and kick some major ass while doing it. Anita certainly has her hands full with this bunch and because that is just not enough stress, Olaf (the creepy serial killer who has Anita in his sights) is up to his old tricks again. IMHO this is one dude who needs killing. It doesn't matter how good a marshal he is if he cannot be trusted to be around Anita without backup. This is one element of the story that I really can't understand. Edward is always protecting her but he does nothing with the whole Olaf thing. Strange.

Anyway, I enjoyed this diversion from Anita's usual life and hope we see more of this new behavior in future books. Don't get me wrong, I like all her men, I just don't like reading page after page of her sexcapades.
