"Taut, fun, werewolf tale with great characters and tons of forward momentum. This was a blast to read and a great addition to the werewolf canon." - Carson Winter, award-winning author of 'Soft Targets' and 'A Spectre is Haunting Greentree'
The legends lied... the moon doesn't matter.
Rayne Ellison is a werewolf on the runfrom her past, from the law, from the influence of the terrible thing lurking in her own genetics. A monster that takes control of her mind and transforms her body, compelling her to commit brutal murders without warning.
Fleeing in the wake of her latest relapse, during which she unwittingly murdered her best friend, Rayne finds herself alone and broke on a tiny island near Seattle. But even as she lands a job and begins forming a wary friendship with one local family, Rayne senses danger looming on two fronts: the increasingly uncontrollable animal inside herself, and a very different predator tracking her every move, a professional hunter with a single obsession: to kill one of every living thing on the planet. He knows werewolves exist. He knows Rayne's deadly secret. He knows exactly where to hang her head in his trophy roomand he doesn't care how many people have to die to make that happen.
Now, Rayne must master the monster within if she hopes to protect her newfound friends, defeat the psychopath stalking her, and learn to live with the awful things she has done.
Hidebound, first installment in The Ambush Moon Cycle, a new trilogy of novellas from Luciano Marano, is a bold and modern take on the classic werewolf myth. A twisted tale of equal parts horror and heart... and guts... and claws... and teeth.
Genre: Horror
