Just shared today! It’s the cover reveal for the next Mercy Thompson book by Patricia Briggs! Winter Lost will be released in June 2024. Here’s the new (gorgeous) cover:
The last Mercy book was released in 2022, so it’s thrilling to see a cover and confirmed date.
Here’s the blurb for the plot:
Mercy Thompson, car mechanic and shapeshifter, must stop a disaster of world-shattering proportions in this exhilarating entry in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.
In the supernatural realms, there are creatures who belong to winter. I am not one of them. But like the coyote I can become at will, I am adaptable.
My name is Mercy Thompson Hauptman, and my mate, Adam, is the werewolf who leads the Columbia Basin Pack, the pack charged with keeping the people who live and work in the Tri-Cities of Washington State safe. It’s a hard job, and it doesn’t leave much room for side quests. Which is why when I needed to travel to Montana to help my brother, I intended to go by myself.
But I’m not alone anymore.
Together, Adam and I find ourselves trapped with strangers in a lodge in the heart of the wilderness, in the teeth of a storm of legendary power, only to discover my brother’s issues are a tiny part of a problem much bigger than we could have imagined. Arcane and ancient magics are at work that could, unless we are very careful, bring about the end of the world. . . .
I can’t wait! Off to place my order now…

*excited girly squeal*
Same here! 🙂
I’m SO excited! I love this series so much. 😀
Me too! I’ve missed Mercy and Adam!
Oh, that‘s funny. I just looked this up yesterday to add it to my reading list for 2024 and found out the title of the book. Now there is a cover! A harp, hm. Maybe something with the fae?
Can’t wait to find out! 🙂
That would be my guess. You just know if Mercy is holding something on the cover of the book, it’s something important, and probably magical. Which usually speaks of the fae. (Though occasionally not).
And I am waiting to find out more about the 7th Alpha & Omega. Still untitled, but with publishing date of March 2024…
I’d love to get the next A&O that soon, but if I had to guess, I’d say that date will probably be delayed until 2025 — pretty sure this one is going to be her next published book.
Yes, wouldn‘t surprise me, with it being untitled so far.
Yeah, probably. 🙁. Much as I like the Mercedes Thompson books, (and I do), the Alpha and Omega are even more of a favourite! It’s unfortunate they get published (it seems) only half as often as Mercy. (Though I’ll take another Mercedes Thompson any time I can get it!)
Wow, that is a nice cover. I hope you love it!
Can’t wait! The cover artist for the series is so talented, and I do love these books.
Gary!!!!
Yayyyyyy
😁 Thanks for the heads-up! I was totally out of the loop on this one!
So exciting to finally have a cover and release date!
