When Reuben Golding, a young reporter on assignment, arrives at a secluded mansion on a bluff high above the Pacific, it’s at the behest of the home’s enigmatic female owner. She quickly seduces him, but their idyllic night is shattered by violence when the man is inexplicably attacked—bitten—by a beast he cannot see in the rural darkness. It will set in motion a terrifying yet seductive transformation that will propel Reuben into a mysterious new world and raise profound questions. Why has he been given the wolf gift? What is its true nature--good or evil? And are there others out there like him?


Reviews:

“Vintage Anne Rice—a lushly written, gothic…metaphysical tale. This time, with werewolves.”

“Intoxicating.”
USA Today

“A delectable cocktail of old-fashioned lost-race adventure, shape-shifting and suspense, brightened by enticing hints of a secret history.”
—Elizabeth Hand, The Washington Post

“A fast-paced, heady romp that ranks with [Rice’s] best…. Feisty and terrific fun.”
—Joy Tipping, Dallas Morning News

“I want to howl at the moon over this…. Rice’s style [is] as solid and engaging as anything she has written since her early vampire chronicle fiction.”
