Wren and Chief were the youngest, most talented shifter assassins at the secret Center for Shifter Elimination. But after a panic-botched job on a wolf shapeshifter, Wren quits. Chief can put down any other shifters out there; she's done.
Except one year later, the CSE calls again - there's a werebear shifter out there. He's killed half a dozen civilians.
And he killed Chief.
When Wren throws herself back into her work, she's looking for one thing: revenge.
She's not looking for love. Mr. Right is about to pop the question.
She's not looking for family. Her parents are doing just fine in Chicago, thank you very much.
She's not looking for a new home. She's a city girl, and Maugham is too small a town to lose yourself in. Even if the hunky park ranger DOES walk around shirtless...
But things you're not looking for have a tendency to sneak up on you, in the worst possible way. And as Wren steps closer to the truth, the small town harboring a dark secret waits... and watches...
With everything to lose, Wren races to find the werebear before it kills again. But what she doesn't know can hurt her... and her next job will be her last.
