Born into a life of violence and uncertainty, Caroline has fought tooth and nail to escape her destructive past, joining the Den of wolf shape shifters in northern England and rising through the ranks to become Alpha, the most powerful female on the estate.
But the ghosts of her past are not so easily laid to rest. After fifteen years apart, an old acquaintance steps back into her life; Andre, an assassin for the Council, the ruling body of the shifter nation. The reunion stirs up old desires in both of them that threaten to distract them from their duty.
As the shifters face new threats from the dark and mysterious Noturatii who are hunting them to extinction, and growing opposition from a rival pack of shifters, Caroline and Andre are both forced to confront their own pasts, and face some difficult questions about their pack’s future.

This book, second of the series, was written with a present day and then a past reference. I really didn't like this style. But besides that the author kept the continuity of the characters. Love the book
One of the amazing things I have found in the series so far has been that everything is at a slow pace and yet the book moves quickly. That might sound a little contradictory but what I mean is the details of the characters, their lives and thoughts are delivered in such a way that we never lose track of who they are. The information is fed carefully and at interesting times.
Events are brutal and the lives the Den lead a harsh one yet the feeling of family is so strong that you are swept up in the action and in this incredible world created by the author. I was so happy to find out she is an Aussie.
Can't wait for the next book. Actually I have already downloaded and started reading.
If you like shifter stories you will like this series. I like that the next book takes up where the one before left off. I would recommend this book to my friends and family.
