Long ago, in the shadow of Spanish conquest, werepanthers were born in Borikén-the land now known as Puerto Rico. Created through sacred rites by the island's oppressed, the enslaved Africans and the indigenous Taíno, they were guardians of balance and warriors of resistance. But as centuries passed, their presence faded into myth. Their truth has been scattered and buried, remembered only in fragments and whispered legends. In the present day, Kara White's world is upended by the sudden death of her mother. A cryptic letter, a journal full of secrets, and one urgent message-drive north and don't look back-send her deep into the shadowed forests of Moore Town, Vermont. There she finds something ancient and ruthlesss stalks the town. Teenagers are vanishing, only to be found days later mutilated and marked with unexplainable symbols. Fear grips the town. Tensions simmer between shifters and humans. And Kara suspects that whatever's hunting the town... is also hunting her. Kara came for answers about her bloodline, her past, and the truth her mother died to protect. Yet tangled in her search, she finds herself the target of suspicion and the focus of Nathanael Wolfe, the town's Alpha, who sees threats in every shadow. As danger closes in, Kara must confront the truth hidden in her blood-before the darkness that claimed her past returns to claim her future.

Werewolves have taken our world. The "Silver War" which happened 50 years ago gave them the victory and power over us. We didn't match their strength and ability and soon the war ended killing us and making humans extinct. The rest of us who survived the war, were forced under the wolves law. They have been slaving us and kidnapping humans to mate. Their brutality has left females scarces. And I am one of the few females who survived in this brutal world.
