Description

ONE TEENAGE GIRL. ONE ONCOMING APOCALYPSE

Mia just wants to fit in at her new school in a new city, maybe find a nice boyfriend. But her suburban life is turned upside down when she encounters three younger boys on the run from a mysterious threat. While trying to help them, Mia is drawn into a shadow world where dark, sinister shapes prowl quiet neighborhoods.

Strange disappearances herald a terrible secret-a new species of deadly predator that could change the natural order of the entire planet. Mia soon discovers that a ruthless man-beast has put her family on the menu, and she must fight to save not only her loved ones but the whole human race from extinction.

"I was really impressed by the quality of the book and the way the author uses the werewolf genre to cover some timeless issues of what it's like being a teenager, with the challenges of becoming independent from parents, dealing with grief and loss, developing self-confidence, sexuality and restraint. He manages to touch on so many pertinent themes all in the context of an adventurous fantasy sci-fi werewolf story. Well done!" – Becky Parker, Pro Audio Voices

"It's like a supernatural action movie. Think Supernatural plus some Teen Wolf. There are werewolves and secret agents and deadly viruses and cool fighting scenes. I loved it! ... definitely one of my top werewolf books of the year (maybe even ever)." – YA Book Season

"A fast-paced novel about love, loss, and the unforgettable scent of once being human ... impossible to put down." - Shelly Li, Scholastic Award-winning author of The Royal Hunter: Throne Under Siege

"For people who like thrillers, people who like horror, and people who want to read wild chase scenes with plucky heroines (and a dog)." - Kater Cheek, author of the Kit Melbourne series

"T. J. Logan drew me in and didn't let me go till the last page. A great narrative style that keeps you intrigued, in suspense and gives you a feeling you are actually there, beside the characters. The short chapters are great attention grabbers and an easy read." - Dragan Simic, Reviewer

"I'm glad I pushed past my 'no more werewolves' mindset and gave this book a chance! I really enjoyed it!" – The (YA) Bookcase
