By going undercover at the Rising Moon, Anne can get close to people who know what goes on after dark—people like John, whose nocturnal disappearances are more than a little suspicious. But unlocking John’s secrets is harder than Anne had anticipated. What’s far too easy is surrendering to him. And now someone—or something—is stalking the innocent and the guilty, and waiting for Anne’s next move...RR@H's Novel Thoughts
