The Piper's Pursuit (Hagenheim #10) 
In 1424 Hamlin, Katerina faces threats from all sides. An outbreak of rats has overtaken the village, a mysterious beast is on a killing rampage of the village's children, and Katerina's evil stepfather is a dark presence inside the walls of her own home. Katerina is determined to hunt and kill the Beast of Hamlin herself before more lives are lost.
When Steffan, the handsome but brash duke's son, comes to town seeking glory and reward, Katerina decides he might be the ally she's been looking for—even though the only gentle thing about him seems to be the sweet music he plays on his pipe. But there's more to Steffan than she suspects, and she finds herself drawn to him despite her misgivings.
Together Katerina and Steffan must stop the enemy from stealing the children of Hamlin. But their interference might create an even worse fate for the entire village. Melanie Dickerson delivers another exciting fairy-tale journey of intrigue and romance in this reimagining of the classic Pied Piper story.
"The Piper's Pursuit" by Melanie Dickerson is an amazing book! It's full of suspense and danger and romance! Steffan and Kat are perfect for each other. I loved EVERYTHING about this book! From the first to last sentence I was captivated. I had high expectations for this book and boy were those expectations met! The Piper's Pursuit teaches that not everyone is worthy of your trust, but those that are, will show it. I love Mrs. Dickerson's romances because they teach you so much! I could rant
Wow, just finished reading this! The book did not grab my attention from the start like Dickerson books are known to do, I didn't like Katerina or Steffan at first. However, when I realized what they would go through together and that they would go from total dislike of each other to something incredible, my attention was captured at that point! Oh my goodness, Dickerson KNOWS how to write a villain and gosh did I hate him.It took me more than half the story to realize that Steffan was the

Readers of Melanie Dickersons The Warrior Maiden have already met Steffan (and most likely formed some sort of an impression of him). Yet, in The Pipers Pursuit, we get a more complete picture of this young man.Steffan is challenged by Katerinaa strong young woman he quickly comes to respect and admire and someone who makes him wish he were worthy of her affection. Kat is brave and courageous who at first seems standoffish but beneath that tough exterior lays a compassionate heart for the people
I have enjoyed these fairy tale retellings that Melanie Dickerson puts a new twist upon for adult readers. This one based on the Pied Piper of Hamlin along with a connection to the story of the Prodigal Son was my favorite so far. Katerina is a strong young woman who cares deeply for her town and its people. She has a wicked stepfather who has educated her and trained her in the use of sword and longbow just to show her off in public; but behind closed doors, he berates and threatens her.
EDITED TO ADD: Well after I read the book and wrote this review, I found out that the author has also written a version of MULAN and ALADDIN, both whitewashed and set in Western Europe. Which is such a huge fucking NOPE Id have reversed any positive recommendation I gave this book. Good thing I already thought it was shite then, huh?This is book 10 in Dickersens Hagenheim series, all apparently fairytale retellings. I havent read any of the others but did feel that this retelling of the Pied
I was so glad I could immediately read The Pipers Pursuit following The Warrior Maiden, as I was eager to find out what happened to Steffan after the events that took place in the earlier book. And truly, both his and Katerinas character growth was the most satisfying part about this story. It was especially satisfying to watch Steffan become redeemed after his previous choices, and see the wonderful man he truly is; his reunion with his parents was beautiful, truly reminiscent of The Prodigals
