Synopsis
Elena Michaels is the only known female werewolf. Tired of hiding what she is and of hunting rogue werewolves for her Pack, she has left it behind and moved back to Toronto to live as a human. Her new life is interrupted when the Pack leader calls in a favor she owes him and asks her to help put down an uprising. She agrees, expecting that once the job is done she will be free of the Pack for good. The story follows Elena as she is drawn back toward the people and the violence she tried to leave.
