A War Built on Blood and Bone

In Ashton Grove, slashed throats and missing blood are being used to turn the local wolf pack against vampires who have only just arrived.

The killer is willing to take as many lives as it takes to turn that suspicion into war.

June Callahan has spent years as the veterinarian who treats the injuries wolves cannot bring to a hospital, and she can tell when a wound does not match the story told about it.

Luca Moretti has lasted two centuries by knowing when to fight and when to disappear, yet leaving is impossible while his sire insists on staying and the pack sharpens stakes.

He needs June, the one human prepared to challenge the wolves, even though helping him could make her the next victim.

Stolen blood, falsified records, and dangerous magic lead them to a man who has spent years preparing Ashton Grove for something worse than a feud, and his trap is already closing.
