Seventeen year old Lisette Kessler is a well-kept secret. Being allergic to the sun, she is confined within her own home with no way out. Her wealthy parents do not speak of her either, ashamed that their own daughter has come out with so many flaws. Lisette, dreaming of a world where she can be free and feel real for once, discovers that there is a world without a sun; a world where she can feel free; and that place is the world of night. All her life she has been told the dangers of the sun, but what about the moon? At first she believes there is nothing that can hurt her there, even when she sees her first wild animal, a gray wolf with amber eyes. But, as she discovers more of what the night life has to offer, what might she unravel?

The wolves hunt her blood. But prey that knows it's being hunted, isn't prey at all. Eighteen-year-old Carolina Chastel belongs to the forest as much as the trees and the wind. Raised to fear and respect it - but never to stay away - she has always known there are dangers lurking beneath the canopy. When a monstrous wolf begins terrorizing the forest every full moon, her brother forbids her from leaving the village. But Red, a nickname courtesy of her crimson hair and cloak, has never been one to listen. When a secret escapade goes wrong and a stray arrow grazes her, staining the foliage with her blood, she thinks nothing of it. Then another attack strikes - but the full moon is still days away. When a cocky traveling hunter, Finnegan Highwater, arrives with a sharp tongue and an agenda of his own, Carolina finds herself at odds with someone who just might be the only person capable of understanding what's happening. He knows more than he lets on. She refuses to trust him. But as the wolf grows bolder, the villagers turn on her, and her blood seems to call to the beasts in the dark, she's left with an impossible choice: When the monsters come, will Red be the prey or something far worse?
