In the dead of a Montana night, all the Chanku packs have
gathered, not for a hunt, but for a vigil. As Tia and Luc
prepare for the arrival of their twins, Chanku from across
the country wait--and share their stories of becoming. . .
For each, embracing the truth of who and what they are has
been a life-altering experience. From Anton and Oliver's
journey of discovery to Jacob Trent's dark night of the
soul; from the intensely powerful relationship Mik and AJ
shared even before they knew about Chanku to Stefan's
torturous feral years, the stories are woven together by
common threads: loneliness, brutality, tenderness--and the
ultimate satisfaction of finding one's place in the pack.
The revelations of primal desire and human need made this
night will bring the Chanku closer than even they dreamed
possible. But will the bond be strong enough when the
united packs are called upon to save the most vulnerable
among them. . .?
