Product Description
In the mid-twenty-first century, the world as we know it no longer exists. The United World Government--with its endless rules and regulations--holds an iron fist over the planet's diminished natural resources. But some things never change. Like greed. Corruption. And murder.
The wife of a powerful district councilman is dead, and Marshal Ty Merrick finds herself in the middle of a deadly investigation. Solving this murder means threatening the very structure of government in her district. And, as Ty knows all too well, there are certain individuals who will never let that happen.
Meanwhile, the District Health Office knows all about Ty's lycanthropic condition--except what it is. Demon or disease? Curse or psychosis? No one knows. And in this rigidly controlled environment, the unknown is unacceptable.
Now Ty faces triple jeopardy. As she is closing in on the killer, the government is closing in on her. And night by night, the moon grows larger...
