    Now that the werewolves have revealed themselves to humans, they can't afford any bad publicity. Infractions that could have been overlooked in the past must now be punished, and the strain of doing his father's dirty work is taking a toll on Charles. Nevertheless, Charles and Anna are sent to Boston when the FBI requests the pack's help on a local serial killer case. They quickly realize that not only the last two victims were werewolves - all of them were.

    Story

    I really loved this book. I'm totally addicted to the Mercy Thompson Series and Alpha and Omega is no disappointment either. With all of Brigg's books that I lhave read and listened to 99% of the content is ok for my kids to hear too if i want to listen over the speaker system. Fair Game is a lot grittier than the other two books in the series and there are only a few instances in Mercy's Series that I don't allow my kids to hear.
    The story is dead on, nothing disappointed me here. One thing to note is there is explicit sex in this book. So if you're going to listen be careful when and where so your kids don't get an early education.
    Holter Graham is an excellent narrator. The only thing that threw me was his "Adam" voice. But that was just because I am so used to King's voice for Adam.
    If you're a Brigg's fan you won't be disappointed.

    When Gabe Hamilton saw Mia Crestwell walk into the ballroom for his hotel’s grand opening, he knew he was going to hell for what he had planned. After all, Mia is his best friend’s little sister. Except she’s not so little anymore. And Gabe has waited a long time to act on his desires. Gabe has starred in Mia’s fantasies more than once, ever since she was a teenager with a huge crush on her brother’s best friend. So what if Gabe’s 14 years older? Mia knows he’s way out of her league, but her attraction has only grown stronger with time. She’s an adult now, and there’s no reason not to act on her most secret desires.

    I really wish Jim Frangione had been the narrator. His "Vicious" really would have been the voice for this story. That's all I can add to any of the reviews that are already out there.

    LAPD cop Scott James is not doing so well, not since a shocking nighttime assault by unidentified men killed his partner, Stephanie, nearly killed him, and left him enraged, ashamed, and ready to explode. He is unfit for duty - until he meets his new partner. Maggie is not doing so well, either. The German shepherd survived three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan sniffing explosives before she lost her handler to an IED and sniper attack, and her PTSD is as bad as Scott’s. They are each other’s last chance.

    Story

    Robert Crais is an excellent writer. I've listened to his other books and have always enjoyed them. This is a stand alone novel. I am the mother of a Marine and one if the first characters you meet in this book is Maggie. She's a german shepard and a Marine. She and her handler are responsible for sniffing out IED's and apprehending suspects. They got my attention right away. Maggie is an excellent Marine and knows that you never leave anybody behind or desert your partner. You will also meet a police officer who is trying to recover from being shot and the loss of his partner. The two pair up and face their demons (PTSD) together. I loved this book. I recommend it to anyone 16 and older.

    Her job description is the "tracking and apprehension of mentally-fractured killers". What this really means in FBI profiler Jace Valchek's brave new world - one in which only one percent of the population is human - is that a woman's work is never done. And real is getting stranger every day. Jace has been ripped from her reality by David Cassius, the vampire head of the NSA. He knows that she's the best there is in the business, and David needs her help in solving a series of gruesome murders of vampires and werewolves.

    I just happened by the second book in this series and found it interesting. I went back and found this one and downloaded it just for fun. I was very happy with the story and the narration. If you are a Sookie Stackhouse Fan you will either love the narration or find it a little weird. Parker is a great narrator.

    Ever since she discovered that she's pregnant, Elena Michaels has been on edge. After all, she's never heard of another living female werewolf, let alone one who's given birth. But thankfully, her expertise is needed to retrieve a stolen letter allegedly written by Jack the Ripper. As a distraction, the job seems simple enough---only the letter contains a portal to Victorian London's underworld, which Elena inadvertently triggers, unleashing a vicious killer and a pair of zombie thugs.
