Kelley Armstrong is back with another installment of her Women of the Otherworld series. It's been 15 years since Elena Michaels was BITTEN by Clay, her werewolf lover. Their story continued in STOLEN, and now with the third book in their saga, BROKEN, the couple gets ready for a new phase in their life together -- parenthood.

Contracted to steal the infamous Jack the Ripper "From Hell" letter from a Toronto sorcerer, Elena and the pack are led to believe the job will be a snap. No trouble at all for a clever pack of weres. And that assertion appears to be true - at first. The theft goes off without a hitch.

Trouble starts when Elena accidentally gets a drop of blood on the letter, which turns out to be a trigger that opens a portal to Victorian London. A couple of Zombies come through along with their controller, who's possibly none other than "Saucy Jack" himself.

Where zombies walk, can mayhem be far behind? The rotting undead roaming the streets unchecked is bad enough, but this pair's brought a whole slew of Victorian diseases with them. Outbreaks of cholera, typhus and syphilis soon have the city in a panic. Did I mention the psycho killer rats?

The zombies are obviously stalking Elena, and the pack circles to protect her, assuming that the rapidly decomposing couple is after the Ripper letter. It's almost too late in the game when Elena finds out that the prize the controller is really after has nothing to do with an old piece of parchment and everything to do with the more precious treasure she's currently carrying in her belly. It may not be the end of the world as we know it, but things in Toronto are definitely heating up for summer.

What a long and rocky road to romance it's been for Elena and Clay. Elena's put the past firmly behind her and committed to Clay, for better or worse. And isn't that just when everything is likely to go to hell? Action abounds as old characters and new ones run with a plot full of twists, turns and enough red herrings to keep the most persnickety of readers entertained. A vastly entertaining read!
