"From the corner of a neighboring building, a pair of not-quite-human eyes watched her intently in the morning half-light. Mimi suddenly felt strange, off-balance. The sidewalk rose up toward her sideways; she would have screamed, but she couldn't find her voice. The world turned gray, static-y, electric. For such a light figure, she hit the ground with a surprising thud. The not-quite-human eyes opened wide and then turned surprisingly quickly into the eyes of a crow that flew to a nearby rooftop. From there he could get a good view of the street, the driver running to help Mimi, the ambulance, the lights, the end of the warm LA night." Mimi's sudden illness brings her an unexpected companion. When that companion turns out to be a shapeshifter who needs Mimi's help to fight greed and corruption in her elite social circle, Mimi's life plunges into a desperate attempt to stop her (ex) boyfriend from seizing control of many of the world's financial resources. A great book for anyone who loves a fast-paced adventure or for anyone who has always suspected that their dog has an alter ego as a superhero.

When Mimi goes to bed in her mansion in California and finds herself unexpectedly thrown into a gunfight in Siberia she realizes that maybe there’s more to her relationship with her old, shapeshifting dog. Back together, Mimi and Ky must try to understand and stop a sinister plot that has been behind centuries of wars.
