Once an orphaned child found wandering the Trans-Canada highway, Darkly Stewart is now a grown woman and undercover RCMP Constable with the uncanny ability to taste the traces of murder that linger in the air. It’s a sensation like touching her tongue to a battery. When the investigation into the murder of Darkly’s partner leads her to a gold rush era ghost town in the wilds of British Columbia, she uncovers the secrets of her own forgotten past. Wolf Woods is indeed a town destined for extinction, unless the residents that call it home can adopt recruits from the outside world…beginning with Darkly.

She is a fine-tuned instrument of justice investigating a world in which werewolfism is a sexually-transmitted disease.

She is Darkly Stewart: the woman who tasted death.

I have a crush on Darkly Stewart. She's a strong heroine created by the unique mind of author D.G. Wood in an exciting and original, fast-paced story that I couldn't put down. Mystery/Adventure lovers, I think you won't be able to either! This author can tell the heck out of a story!

4.0 out of 5 stars A New Take on Werewolf Origins with a Fascinating Protagonist
Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2018

The Darkly Stewart Mysteries are a new take on the world of werewolves - though with a tip of the hat to biblical origins - which plays fast and loose with the tropes of the genre in a decidedly cinematic fashion. Darkly is a fascinating female heroine who takes us on her journey of discovery of who she is and how she fits into the new ‘underworld’ order. I’m really looking forward to reading the entire series.

This book for me was a little slow to get into. Once I got past my slow part I wanted to keep reading. This book left me with a few questions I won't ask here just know a few parts I'm still scratching my head at. I did like how the author didn't let Darkly give up! That woman sure did have a hell of a growing up. I felt the book was rushed some things should have been better explained or I'm just not getting it. You be the judge
