  <default_description>It happened quickly. Overnight, the greater Los Angeles area found itself in the horrifying grasp of a werewolf epidemic.&#160;Twenty&#160;eight days of the month they are no different than you&#160;or me--the&#160;High Bloods, who managed to go unaffected. But every full moon, they are the most&#160;ravenous creatures&#160;man has ever seen.&#160;&lt;DIV&gt;A&#160;new law-enforcement agency has been created to keep tabs on the those whose blood runs Lycan. Rawson is an agent for Lycan Control, and his job is&#160;to make sure all the afflicted are found, monitored, and&#160;kept at bay the night they change. But&#160;the&#160;Lycans in Hollywood have risen to cultlike proportions, and Rawson's job is getting tougher.

&lt;DIV&gt;One night, a woman changes right in front of Rawson. And it's not a full moon. Someone deep in the annals of Hollywood has managed to trip the logic of the werewolves' being. Battling a rising&#160;tide of Lycan rights activists and a growing population of those who are choosing to be Lycan over&#160;High Blood, Rawson must carve a path to the top of the Lycan chain before all hell breaks loose.&#160;&lt;/DIV&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Although this was sold as a horror, with a review by Stephen King on the very front, it read as more of a crime-thriller.  As a horror story? Not so great-no chills, moments of creep, nothing.  As a crime story?  Very good, A+ moments.  Interesting to read about familiar Orange County/LA County loca...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/73477648">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Interesting concept with noirish execution.  But maybe overly complicated?  If you need a glossary and then don't put everything in the glossary I think that is a point against you.  More science fictiony than  fantasy which was not what I expected.

    <body><![CDATA[A fascinating take on werewolf lore that blends a supernatural detective noir with a near future doomscape. A seemingly pre-apocolyptic California and presumably beleaguered America is under a near constant fear of a werewolf attack.
