I didn't realize until posting the title that Bound in Death is the fifth in an established series; this may explain some of the confusing allusions made by various characters, but the novel can certainly stand on its own. The story follows a werewolf who has tracked his lover for 200 years, trying to find the place of her imprisonment. When she is finally released she has no memory, and is left navigating a confusing world - one in which she finds herself at the mercy of a number of men around her.
Jane Smith, as she calls herself, is not a sympathetic protagonist, as she is incredibly two-dimensional, and her eventual growth is sudden and inexplicable. However, the struggle of her alpha partner is interesting, and proved to be more rewarding than my other recent reads in the genre. I will likely find the first four to idle away an afternoon, post-semester.
