Claire Kennedy has returned to Lake Bluff, Georgia, as the
small town's mayor. She's come home after spending some
years as a journalist in Atlanta. Knowing she's gone about
as far as she can go in the world of journalism, and
reeling from a brutal attack that has left her unsure of
herself and wary of men, Claire comes home to heal and
create a new life for herself. Not much goes on in Lake
Bluff, where her best friend Grace is sheriff, until the
summer Malachi Cartwright comes to town.
Lake Bluff's Full Moon Festival is the main tourist event
in the small town, and this year Claire's assistant has
hired a traveling group of gypsies to entertain. The
unusual group of people, led by the intriguing Malachi,
appears to be a peaceful group with an unusual affinity to
a variety of animals, and Claire is willing to allow them
to stay in town, despite Grace's misgivings. All too soon,
Claire and Grace have more important things to worry about.
A tourist claims to have been attacked by a wolf, and
shortly after the first attack, there are two more. Grace
can't help but wonder if it's mere coincidence that wolves
have shown up in the area at the same time as Malachi and
his travelers. Claire and Malachi must work together to
discover the true evil behind the attacks and stop them
before more lives are lost.
HIDDEN MOON, the latest Nightcreature novel by Lori
Handeland, is a paranormal thriller you can't put down.
It leads readers through frightening adventures with a
collection of bizarre and spooky suspects. Claire is equal
parts vulnerable and brave, Grace has an intriguing take-no-
prisoners attitude and Malachi is sensually mysterious.
Fans of Ms. Handeland will enjoy her latest book; those new
to her world will be looking for more!
