Usually when your ex-husband dies, that’s the end of the story. Unfortunately for Secret McQueen—FBI agent and werewolf queen—nothing could ever be that simple.

And she’s going to need to do it in the middle of the jungle, because Lucas has gotten himself entangled with a South American werewolf pack, and his life is on the line.

Secret McQueen has been many things in her life: head of the Vampire Tribunal, werewolf queen twice over, bounty hunter, fighter, lover. She's been the hunter and the hunted. Hell, she even died once. One thing she never thought she'd be, however, was a normal human. Because "normal" was never a word to apply to her. Now, Secret's a former vampire/werewolf-hybrid living in a human's body. She continues to answer the call of the supernatural, working for an elite FBI special unit designed to help the general public accept the existence of the creatures that used to only be found in nightmares.

After her last mission tested the limits of her humanity and took her out of this world, Secret’s friends, determined to keep her safe from her old nemesis Alexandre Peyton, keep ushering her from one babysitter to the next.

After a rescue mission in South America resulted in Secret McQueen accidentally becoming a werewolf again, she is forced to navigate the New York City supernatural world in a way she never has before. She's been a vampire-werewolf hybrid. She's been a human. Now she's something both brand new and totally familiar. As she adjusts to what her change means for her husband Desmond and the pack, a rogue group of wolves is on the rise, and their leader is hell-bent on making a move on the throne. To make matters worse, he wants Secret's death to kick-start the revolution.

After cheating death twice in one night, confessing her true nature to her werewolf soul mates and being asked to kill one of her closest friends, Secret took a much-needed vacation. By running away. Now she’s back in town—dragged kicking and screaming—determined to clear Holden Chancery’s name. Right after she finds out what he’s accused of. It shouldn’t be hard—Holden has a habit of using their new and scintillating psychic bond to break into her thoughts and dreams at some very, shall we say, awkward moments.

Secret McQueen has hunted vampires, werewolves, and every conceivable supernatural menace-to-society. Seen it all? Not even close. When the queen of the were-ocelots comes to her for help finding a missing girl, the half-vampire/half-werewolf soon realizes how much she has to learn about the things that go bump in the night.

Ever since her near-death experience at the hands of the villainous Dr. Kesteral, Secret McQueen hasn’t been the same. As in damaged almost beyond repair. But as usual, Secret has no time to lick her wounds. Armed to the fangs, she and Desmond embark on a whirlwind quest for revenge that takes them to the sewers of Paris to put an end to Alexandre Peyton. Instead, it’s almost the end of them, and before she can stop him, Peyton rips the veil off her deepest secret.
