"Hello there, I'm Munira, and I'm a werewolf. This is my friends, family, and I's collection of personal logs put together to weave the tale of our young adult lives. Of course the adults have some say in this too, but mainly, it's about us, the next generation. Oh yeah, some of you might be groaning and whining, saying things like "Another bad werewolf story?" or "I bet her mates the alpha, just like all the rest." And to that, I have to say you can go shove it. That's not how all werewolf stories are, those are just the fake ones thought up by silly teenage girls with overly-romantic ideals. No, this story, this story will be the real deal. Sometimes there won't be happy endings, sometimes there will. There will at times be at heartbreak, but that's part of growing up, you know?"
A genetically unique but emotionally lost teenager must figure out who she is within her mixed-up, warring world of Shifters and Wolfstalkers.
*****
It wasn't Maddie's choice to be born a half-breed, half Shifter, half Wolfstalker -- a hunter of Shifters -- and it wasn't her choice to keep her identity a secret. But after trying to attend high school like any normal sixteen-year-old, things quickly spiral south when her Stalker uncle finds out about her and catapults her out of anonymity and into the awareness--or possibly the crosshairs--of The Order of the Wolfstalker. Maddie must think fast and figure out a way to keep herself and her family safe, or risk losing everything. Including her life.
