About this listen

Shining Smith stands on the brink of achieving her goals, and yet now she could lose everything.

The presidents of four motorcycle clubs are coming to claim blood sacrifice and to ink her with motorcycle club tats. Her new roadhouse and its charter have to meet their approval or the roadhouse has no future, and neither does Shining.

An injured kid shows up at Smith’s Junk and Scrap, but collapses before he can speak.

A note arrives containing a warning and a plea for help, addressed by someone who knows Shining’s most intimate secrets—her history, her plans, and the names of her friends. The sender claims his daughter has been kidnapped by Shining’s enemies. To keep her secrets, he wants Shining to get his daughter back.

In order to rescue the hostage and keep her junkyard, her roadhouse, her people, and the cats alive, Shining Smith will have to suffer, fight, and bargain her way out of danger. All without accidently transitioning anyone—creating an accidental thrall—no matter how much her nanobots want her to.

Lock and load. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.

I love this world. I love the gritty characters. I love the cats. I just need the books to be longer. is it a ploy to make us buy twice the number of books? because this one felt waaay too like "watch this space" at the end.

is just too short.

Doesn't have the feel of the first three. It's missing something, perhaps an overarching goal or a reason for Shining to be personally invested. This book feels a bit like an attempt to spin a whole story out of the loose ends left over at the end of book 3 and comes up short of something with the substance and mystery the first three held. Starts strong but ends up more like a bread-crumb trail than a proper meal.
