A man who thinks he's been cursed. A woman who's been searching for proof her whole life. And a truth neither of them is ready for.
Hudson Walt didn't come to Crescent Creek looking for answers. He came to take care of his grandmother and to find enough open land to hide what he's becoming. Something took root inside him after an attack six months ago—something alive, something he can't control. The job at the hardware store keeps his hands busy. The woods keep his secret safe. Until her.
Malina Bayberry grew up listening to her father swear he saw a man turn into a wolf in the woods behind their house. The town called him crazy and watched him drink himself to death over it. She never stopped believing him. Now she spends her mornings hiking those same woods with a camera, searching for proof the rest of the town wrote off years ago. When she photographs a bear with eyes that look too aware to be an animal's—and meets a new guy in town whose eyes match—she starts to question things.
But the closer Malina gets to the truth, the harder Hudson pushes her away. And the thing he's most afraid of isn't what lives inside him—it's what happens if she finds out.
