Author Christine Johnson has created a new and intriguing werewolf world. Claire turns 16 and finds out that she has a destiny laid out for her that she didn't expect - she's a werewolf from a line of very strong and powerful werewolves. In her hometown, a rogue werewolf is terrorizing the community and killing men, and a government group that hunts werewolves, the Federal Human Protection Agency, is looking for any they can find. Claire wants to be a "normal" teenager but doesn’t feel comfortable in either skin for now. Add to that a growing relationship with Matthew, who just so happens to be the son of the FHPA leader, and Claire doesn’t know what to do.
