I am continuing to enjoy this series, and am having a hard time not reading them all one after another. In fact, I’ve been having a hard time putting them down to go to bed, and twice have stayed up to midnight to finish a book.

As with all the Kate Shugak books I have read so far, you should be able to read this book without having read any previous books.
