Werewolf Ted Brand had not had an easy life. His soulmate Shan is a wolf & his twin cubs change into human children when the moon is full. Fortunately, he found Bulfinche’s Pub where folks don’t look down on his lifestyle choices.

 In a flash, his life has completely unraveled. Ted has been beaten, his family taken by another more powerful werewolf. To make matters even worse, he has found out Paddy Moran has kept secrets in order to protect him.

 To track down and save his family, Ted will have to unlock the secrets of the werewolf in order to stop the rogue D.M.A. agent Buck Lang.  His quest will take him from the Washington, D.C. headquarters of the Department of Mystic Affairs to the Eternity Club in Philadelphia. Ted thinks he has to go it alone, but the staff & patrons of Bulfinche’s Pub take care of their own, whether they want it or not. With the help of the cursed magí Hex, vampyre Lucas Wilson, two former Knights of the Round Table, & bartender John Murphy, Ted will get his family back, no matter who or what stands in the way.
