Missing Pieces — L.J. Breedlove

Problems, but No Solutions

Alpha Abby Stafford keeps inheriting messes to clean up, and she feels like she's just scrambling to stay ahead of the crises. And every crisis seems to lead to another bigger problem. She doesn't have all the pieces she needs to solve them either.

It wasn't like her scholarly work. There was a process to that. A literature review of what was already known. Observation, interviews, data collection. A time for reflection and synthesis. And then she produced an article or a book.

It might be years before she was ready to write. And even then no one expected her to solve anything. Accurate description was amazing enough.

But as pack Alpha? And now Chairman of the Northwest Council of Alphas? She's forced to decide for all the wolves, and she's operating on less information than she needs.

A lot less.
