Horatio Longsworth lives and works with the Mojave Mountain Wolf Pack, but he's never gotten over his lost love, Fain. Though Fain tricked and almost killed him, Horatio believes there has to be an explanation. Fain could never really hurt him. Or could he? But when one of his own is also nearly fatally wounded, can Horatio overlook all the evidence to give Fain a second chance? Fain Para is a man of myth and mystery. He loves Horatio but left him to protect him. Or so he led Horatio to believe. When the Mojave Mountain Wolves relocate from Timtuk Canyon Ranch to the more isolated Icebox Canyon, strange things start happening to the pack. Is he the dangerous predator people say he is, or is there something…someone out there, even deadlier than Fain?
