Bone Crossed by Patricia Briggs

Bone Crossed by Patricia Briggs. SciFi. Book in Mercy Thompson series. I love this character. She practices martial arts, works as a mechanic, and is a were coyote/skinwalker. She's dating an alpha werewolf and friends with not only fae but vampires. Only some of the vampires are well evil. After one of her friendly vampires is tortured and dropped in her apt she decides it might be a good time to take time to see an old friend. Too bad that friend was involved with the monster (a truely evil vampire).

I can't wait to see this author tonight. It's going to be fun. :)
