Returning to her childhood haven in the Minnesota woods, wolf researcher Alexandra Warrington, facially and psychically scarred, is seeking solace and peace; what she finds instead is a dream from her past and a choice. A reluctant werewolf hero, a heroine who is stronger than she believes, and a crazed villain combine in this tale of murder and self-discovery. In returning to the uniquely drawn world of the loup-garoux seen in her initial Prince of Wolves (Bantam, 1994), Krinard has created a story that, although not quite as passionate, is tighter, features more well-developed characters, and leaves fewer unanswered questions. Fans will be waiting for this one. Krinard lives in Concord, California.
