The Seventh Sons of Sycamore is a paranormal werewolf thriller set in a small town. The local detective, Maxim Dwyer, sets out to search for the man that stabbed a man in a local bar. His search leads him to Diego, who openly asks him if he wants proof of werewolves.From there the action continues to the local motorcycle club, The Seven Sons, and his search for the killer. Little known to him, the motorcycle club is not only overrun with werewolves, but it is also ran by one of them. Detective Dwyer runs into Diego again at the headquarters for the motorcycle and soon finds out the Diego is not a member of the club, he is there on other business.The book is full of action and intrigue as the reader follows Dwyer and Diego through the pages of the book. Around every turn, you find another twist in the story.The werewolves in the novel are the four leg variety and shift based on the alignment of the sun and moon. The ability to shift at will escapes them and they are left to their primal urges only when the alignment is correct.This is a short read and can be finished in one sitting; I read the entire book in about four hours.The story bounces around a little, but overall it was easy to follow the story line and keep up with the plot.
