The year is 1861, and the wild, untamed frontier hides more than just bandits and dust storms.
When cattle begin turning up mutilated and ranchers go missing near the rugged town of Bittercreek, three brothers from the McCoy family uncover a horror beyond their understanding. Joined by Katrina Van Buren, a hardened vampire hunter with a score to settle, they face a sinister force stalking the vast, desolate landscape.
As whispers of dark figures grow, the group is forced into an uneasy alliance, navigating the unforgiving terrain, rugged mines, and an underworld of blood-hungry creatures. Armed with silver, wooden stakes and holy water, makeshift torches, and sheer grit, they know it will take everything they have to survive.
In a land where justice is swift but survival is swifter, only one question remains: will the hunters become the hunted?

[Book One of the Lupus Noctis Series] "There are spirits that watch over us. And some that never stopped bleeding." When wildlife biologist Silas Cross returns to Tawenà Crossing, a remote Cherokee reservation buried in the Appalachian wilderness, he's hoping to confront a personal haunting - a childhood vision of something primal and monstrous beneath the blood moon. But Tawenà is changing. Animals are vanishing. People are dying - ripped apart with inhuman brutality. Elders whisper of an old guardian spirit twisted by forgotten blood rites, now awakened by desecrated land and restless souls. They call it the Wyrgheist: the Wolf of the Night. As Silas digs deeper, he uncovers a horrifying truth - his family blood is tied to the creature's origin. But he isn't the only one drawn into the storm. Reina Dorne, the tribal sheriff, has spent years trying to keep peace between tradition and law, but the killings stir old fears - and her own father's disappearance years ago. Lark Grayson, an amateur folklorist, thought she came chasing legends for her podcast. She didn't expect to survive an encounter with the Wyrgheist - or be marked by it. Deacon Bram Holloway, descendant of a settler priest, holds the key to a forbidden ritual passed down through guilt-stained generations - a ritual that could seal the creature away... or set something even worse loose. In a land where the dead speak in crows, the wind carries warnings, and blood never truly dries, the Wyrgheist has returned. And it remembers every name. > Some monsters are born. Others are conjured. But the worst are called home. <Complete
