In this captivating reinvention of the werewolf novel, S. A.
Swann propels readers into the darkest days of the Middle
Ages, weaving a rare blend of soaring romance, historical
intrigue, paranormal thrills, and spiritual questioning to
tell a story that forever changes those who hear
it.
When a monk inadvertently discovers a lair
of werewolf young, he unleashes what will become the
Church’s most powerful–and secret–weapon. Clandestinely
raised by the Teutonic Order, these lupine creatures serve
as instruments of God against pagan unbelievers. Trained to
slip into villages cloaked in human form, they are all but
unstoppable. Only one, called Lilly, has cunningly fled her
brutal master.
Uldolf is too young to remember the
massacre eight years earlier that claimed his village, his
arm, and his kin. But he knows the pain of loneliness. When
he sees what appears to be a beautiful young woman, injured
and cowering in the woods, he races to her aid. Uldolf and
his adoptive family will do anything to protect the
terrified girl, but the danger is greater than they can
possibly imagine. For death is the only life Lilly has ever
known–and if their humanity can’t pierce the darkness Lilly
harbors in her soul, they’ll soon come to know it, too.
