Publisher Description
As the moon goes dark, secrets come to light . . .
The bronze nameplate on my desk reads Dr. Elise Hanover-Virologist. I've made it my mission to cure lycanthropy. My life depends on it. I am a werewolf too.
I've been holed up in a secret Montana compound for . . . what year is it? Let's just say it's been a while.
But when the compound blows sky high and the biggest, baddest, craziest werewolf of all escapes, I'm thrown together with FBI agent, Nic Franklin. Unfortunately, he's the man whose heart I broke once upon a time, and he hasn't forgotten, or forgiven, me yet.
My boss, Edward Mandenauer, is just waiting for a reason to put a silver bullet in my brain and the way things are going, downhill at epic speed, he may have found the perfect excuse.
The worst part? I love Nic again, or maybe I love him still, and a weakness like that is certain to get both of us killed.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Werewolves, witchie wolves, gypsies and trigger-happy werewolf hunters roam the landscape of Handeland's snappily written paranormal romance, the third in her Moon series (Blue Moon; Hunter's Moon). Dr. Elise Hanover is smart, cheeky and determined to protect humankind from the bloodthirsty werewolf population even though she's a werewolf herself. Elise has concocted a serum to quell her blood lust, but she still turns furry when the moon is full, a fact that led her to walk away from a promising relationship years earlier. She gets a second chance, however, when her old beau, FBI agent Nic Franklin, arrives at the compound where she's been researching cures for werewolfism. In a breakneck sequence of events, the compound explodes; Elise and Nic flee to Fairhaven, Wis., where a handful of her co-workers are hunting werewolves; and they get caught up in solving the mystery of why so many people have gone missing in Fairhaven. In the process, Elise Handeland's most appealing heroine yet learns to embrace her inner canine. Though some of the plot twists will be old hat to those who have read the previous books, and Elise's co-workers have an annoying habit of wanting to shoot everyone (including Elise), this tense, banter-filled tale provides a few hours of solid entertainment.
Customer Reviews
Highly recommended
When Elise’s life changed she left everything behind, including the love of her life. She has been on a mission for seven years to find a cure for herself as well as all other werewolves. When Nic walks back into her life her world gets blown apart again, but will this time bring about the truth she has been seeking? Nic searched for years trying to find out where Elise had gone, he had given up when they finally came face to face again. When her secrets come to light will he be able to live with what she has become? I really loved this book, and enjoyed the glimpses of the characters from the other books so far.
