NATIONAL BESTSELLER - "Vintage Anne Rice--a lushly written, gothic ... metaphysical tale. This time, with werewolves." --The Wall Street Journal When Reuben Golding, a young reporter on assignment, arrives at a secluded mansion on a bluff high above the Pacific, it's at the behest of the home's enigmatic female owner. She quickly seduces him, but their idyllic night is shattered by violence when the man is inexplicably attacked--bitten--by a beast he cannot see in the rural darkness. It will set in motion a terrifying yet seductive transformation that will propel Reuben into a mysterious new world and raise profound questions. Why has he been given the wolf gift? What is its true nature--good or evil? And are there others out there like him?
This is one of Anne rices more cozier reads I feel. It did still have this romantic foresty Gothic vibe to it. I really enjoyed the change of pace and the warm intimacy of the book. I also recieved a nice library copy of this book. Very pleased with my purchase.
