How far will one woman go for the salvation of her beloved? Mercy Barlowe's love for Sarah brings down Hell when her puritanical father discovers them together - and has his own daughter burnt at the stake. But death is not the end. A monstrous cult of shapeshifters steal Sarah's soul as part of its twisted plans to resurrect an ancient evil. To defeat them, Mercy must take on a new form...She must become a werewolf!
