What this book is about
The spin-off companion to the Wolves of Mercy Falls trilogy follows Cole St. Clair — rock star, werewolf, self-destructive genius — to Los Angeles, where he's trying to rebuild himself in the public eye. Isabel is there too, pretending she's moved on. Stiefvater's prose is as sharp as in the main trilogy; this is a quieter, more character-driven book, focused on two damaged people trying to deserve each other.
