About this ebook

Missing children and family secrets collide under the light of the full moon.

After Dr. Joanie Fisher’s million-dollar lab—and secret affair with her boss— go up in flames, inheriting her grandfather's estate in the Ozarks seems like a perfect opportunity for a fresh start. Before she can claim the property, she discovers that local children have been disappearing around the full moon.

Joanie’s investigation into the kids’ disappearances thrusts her into a world of werewolves and curses—a world her scientific brain tells her shouldn’t be possible. Worse, the key to finding the kids lies in the connection between her abandoned research and a deadly family secret that’s already claimed her only sibling.

Danger looms around every corner, and the town’s missing children are running out of time. To save them, Joanie must find the strength to face the truth of her family’s supernatural past and confront the darkness that lured her to Wolfsbane Manor. Will she risk everything to uncover the truth, or will she fall prey to the evil stalking Crystal Pines?

If you love Patricia Briggs, Charlaine Harris, and Deborah Harkness, you’ll absolutely devour The Wolf’s Shadow.

Ratings and reviews

good, kept me interested all the way through. not a fan of the cheating, but that's my hang up (and some others thus I mention it here) and I don't hold it against the rating. some things could be more strongly thought out so I dropped a star, though if I could have made it a half star deduction I would have.

This was a good 5 star read. Right from the start Joanie feels like nothing can go right for her.Until she gets a letter requesting she come see a lawyer, she isn’t sure what to expect. There she finds out that she has inherited her grandfather's estate worth millions. She meets her friend later and tells her what has happened. Her friend has gotten a new job to investigate some mysterious disappearances and it happens to be in the same area as her grandfather's estate. Once they arrive they start to put some pieces together and things get even more mysterious from here. Will they be able to figure out where these kids are going? What does it have to do with a full moon? What really happened to her grandfather? Overall I really enjoyed this read. I liked Joanie and her friend. The secondary characters also added a great element to the story. It has been awhile since I have read this genre and I was pulled right back in with this author's writing. I look forward to reading more from this series and author. 1-click and get started today.
