Crimson Moon

January 1, 2005
Who is Sam Morgan? Wealthy investor with entree into upper-crust society? Environmental activist who uses robbery to bring down major polluters? Or is he bad-boy werewolf Johnny Marshall, long believed dead? When he infiltrates a party at the Woodlock mansion to plan a caper to take what is most dear to the man who is decimating a Washington forest, he isn't expecting to meet a woman who will awaken his werewolf craving for a partner for life. Later, when his robbery goes wrong, he discovers that Woodlock's adult children, Olivia and Colin, and Colin's lover, Brice, had actually been setting him up because they needed a thief to redeem for them something that was stolen, the loss of which imperils the Woodlock family. Once again, York delivers an exciting and suspenseful romance with paranormal themes that she gets just right. This is a howling good read that connects beautifully with the earlier tales of Sam's brothers, " Killing Moon" (2003) and " Witching Moon" (2003).(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2005, American Library Association.)
