Wolfkind does not operate under classic werewolf rules, a definite plus!We meet Joshua as he travels cross-country from his isolated home in New Hampshire to LA, charged with halting a werewolf gone bad, albeit, its victims have all been organized crime ring members. Joshua is young, sensitive, inexperienced in life and innocent. All that is about to change! Hunting his prey, Joshua seeks friendship with Genna, estranged daughter of the biggest crime boss, believing that the wayward wolf must be part of his syndicate. He's right (sort of), but Genna triggers new feelings in him. She rejects the tenets of his teacher, Barlow, that he is an abomination by reason of birth, and sows the seeds of self-respect. Meanwhile, he finds the "Invisible Assassin" he seeks, which creates an all-new and very human dilemma.This book has a strong plot, powerful characters, and offers plenty of food for thought - when the reader has time to come up for air! It is paced well and with the scenario of "werewolf meets crime boss" the mayhem is guaranteed. BTW, the werewolf is not the most vicious player in this excellent yarn.
