After he left the sleepy Victorian hamlet of Blackmoor, he spent decades recovering and trying to forget. But when his brother's fiancée tracks him down to help find her missing love, Talbot returns home to join the search. He learns that something with brute strength and insatiable bloodlust has been killing the villagers, and that a suspicious Scotland Yard inspector has come to investigate. As Talbot pieces together the gory puzzle, he hears of an ancient curse that turns the afflicted into werewolves when the moon is full. Now, if he has any chance at ending the slaughter and protecting the woman he has grown to love, Talbot must destroy the vicious creature that stalks the woods surrounding Blackmoor. But as he hunts for the nightmarish beast, a simple man with a tortured past will uncover a primal side to himself . . . one he never imagined existed.

"I always enjoy Mr. Maberry's work. This is no exception though it doesn't quite live up to his other stuff. I have yet to see the film version of this piece but from what I can tell by the previews it matches well. Scary, colorful, dramatic...it will keep you reading well into the night. "

" The movie seems almost comical after reading the book. I wish the book had a sequel just to tie off the knots in Qwen's life. "

" Certainly not a thought provoking novel, but none the less, it is an enjoyable read. The book brings back a lot of memories of when I was young and would stay up late at night watching the classic Univeral Studios' horror films. "

" I remember the old black and white and the tortured Mr. Talbot. His fight against the evil that gripped his soul and tore his humanity from him was painful to see. The new movie, eh. I loved Sir Anthony Hopkins of course, the rest just left me flat. "
