Nicole Deliz: Savage, Gebunden

Klappentext

"I am the monster who hunts monsters. This is my life." In New York City, the supernatural world is not a secret. It is regulated. Vampires have sects. Witches have covens. Werewolves have packs. And when monsters break the law, the NYPD's Supernatural Crimes Division sends Detective Maria Villalobos to deal with it. Maria is a born werewolf, packless by choice, and the SCD's most effective weapon. She reads crime scenes by scent, tracks killers that leave no human footprints, and keeps her inner beast under control when the moon rises. Most days, that is enough to keep the city breathing.

Then the Alpha of New York's werewolf pack is found brutally murdered in his own home.

The killing rattles every supernatural faction in the city, and it is Jason Calder, the Alpha's firstborn son and pack enforcer, who calls Maria in. He wants answers before his father's death shatters what little balance remains. But Jason is also the obvious suspect. He has a violent reputation, a complicated past, and more than enough motive to want the throne. The city wants a clean resolution. The pack wants justice. And Maria knows that getting it wrong will cost lives. As the investigation deepens, the bodies begin to pile up. The wounds are ritualistic. The magic feels wrong. Whatever is killing is not acting out of reason or revenge. It is older than the city, and it is still hunting.

Pulled into supernatural politics, Maria crosses paths with Rohan Singh, a lethal master vampire whose interest in the murders runs deeper than he admits. And the closer Maria gets to the truth, the clearer it becomes that the killer is not just hunting power. It is hunting monsters.

Including her.
