The body lay at the bottom of the stairs. He wore red and green pyjamas. It took me a second to realise the red was blood.
An old man, his eyes were still open. For one dreadful moment I thought he was still alive. But no one can live with a hole where their throat should be .-.-.
Danielle Forest, Virtual Engineer, was looking forward to spending some quiet time with her lover, in their stone house in the Outlands. But someone, or some thing, keeps murdering members of nearby Utopias. A family of werewolves is under suspicion and Danielle′s friend Ophelia asks her to prove their innocence.
Before she can say ′silver bullet′, Danielle is a temporary resident of the Tree home to the apparently friendly werewolves , and fully occupied trying to deal with another bloody murder, the angry local community and some amorous water sprites; not to mention her bone-loving hosts.
Are the werewolves the killers Danielle seeks? Or are humans more vicious by far?
This thrilling sequel to In the Blood is the second book in the Outlands trilogy.
