Synopsis

The first in a werewolf paranormal trilogy from the acclaimed author, Mathilde Madden

Eleven years ago a powerful ancient werewolf ripped Iris's life apart. One full moon night it attacked the two people she loved most in the world, killing her twin brother and leaving her boyfriend Alfie changed forever. Iris and Alfie vowed revenge on the Beast, but when Alfie began to show a twisted loyalty to the creature who had made him, Iris lost him too.

Now, Alfie is back in Oxford where Iris - still haunted by her dead brother - is heading up the Vix, a shadowy organisation dedicated to killing his kind. But Alfie needs Iris's help or what the Beast did to him that night may yet prove fatal. His only hope of keeping his deadly beast under control is the Silver Collar - an ancient artefact currently owned by the Vix. But Iris isn't prepared to help Alfie secure it until he agrees to defy the rules of his kind and help her avenge Matthew's death.

From the Back Cover

'It was like a flash of an image. Subliminal. Iris saw - or thought she saw - just for a fraction of a second, not a wolf over her, pinning her, but a man. A man whose warm breath was sweet on her cheek. Whose body was toned and shaped like a secret fantasy. Whose face was flushed, rakish, handsome.

Who was holding himself over her, supporting himself on big, pumped up forearms. Beautiful and shimmering with monstrousness.
A man she knew; recognised.
'Alfie?'

Eleven years ago a werewolf attack ripped Iris's life apart.
Her twin brother Matthew was killed. Her boyfriend Alfie was infected. And Iris was changed forever.
Now Iris is a werewolf hunter. And Alfie is back in Oxford in need of her help. But Iris doesn't help werewolves. She kills them.

Alfie desperately needs to find the Silver Collar. An ancient artefact that may help repair his fragmenting body. But Iris will only help Alfie on one condition: if he agrees to defy the rules of his kind and help her avenge Matthew's death. Something Alfie just can't do.

Alfie and Iris both think that what happened between them eleven years ago has destroyed the love and trust they had for each other forever. The Silver Collar shows them that they're both wrong.
