Synopsis

Rafael, king of the wererats, must fight to the death to defend his crown. He wants Anita Blake, one of his closest allies, with him as he faces an opponent unlike any he’s faced before. He will ask Anita to risk everything to be at his side....
 
But some of the wererats fear that Rafael depends too much on Anita and her ties to the vampires. They believe that there is only room in America for one supernatural king, and Rafael will turn them into nothing more than food for the bloodsuckers.
 
Among his enemies, a new challenger has arisen who is younger, hungrier, and has dark secrets that could destroy both the wererats and the vampires. Rafael will go into the magical heart of his people to find the power and violence that he needs to save them all, or die trying.

Goodreads review by Bradley on November 04, 2020

Goodreads review by Amy on February 10, 2021

A brutal slice of life into the world of Rafael's rodere—I really enjoyed this entry into the series. Given the usual length of Anita Blake books, this was basically a novella!

Goodreads review by Lorena on April 13, 2021

I waffled on the rating for this one, I really did. It's maybe 1.5 stars? The 2 stars is because (a) it's not 700 pages long, (b) this means there is one relatively focused plot and not so much endless dithering about random relationship stuff that ends up going nowhere (although...come on.
