Silence Fallen by Patricia Briggs

Silence Fallen is the 10th book in the Mercy Thompson series and gives us a unique dual POV with Adam and Mercy as they're separated across countries. This is probably one of my favorite books in the series, mostly because it feels like we get to step back and absorb some of what's been going on in the last few books. That is not to say that Mercy and Adam are getting any kind of break as

Mercy is kidnapped by Bonarata. Why you ask? No clue really until the very end of the story. As the reader we are constantly wondering the why behind the what. Adam puts together his version of the A team to rescue Mercy from Italy once they figure out where she's disappeared to. This team includes Marsillia and Elizaveta our two fierce female side characters as well as Larry the Goblin king, a new ally, and a few other unassuming people to crew the plane. That feels important, to be unassuming. Who do we know that flourishes on being underestimated? Matt Smith also seems to know so much about what is going on for someone that just entered the story. (I missed the reference here because I'm not a Who follower). Seriously Bran, just putting yourself out there in danger but we all knew you loved Mercy dearly, did you have to wait so long to say it!

In the end it's still murky who really twisted the threads of fate to bring Mercy to Europe.
