Publisher's Synopsis
A lonely newspaper reporter.
An immortal Egyptian prince.
The mythical shapeshifter that stalks them both.
When reporter Krista Hawthorne inherited an heirloom ankh from her mother, she was unaware of her own ties to Ancient Egypt. Running from heartbreak, she leaves the Arizona desert to begin life anew in a small town nestled in the Appalachian Mountains.
Then one night beneath the full moon, a horror unfolds near the banks of the Lune River. The murder she witnesses is beyond what she can grasp. The beast? The matching ankh around its neck? Why did it let her live?
And the biggest question of all: Does Sheriff Rawlins hold the answers to Krista's mysterious heritage and to the lore of the beast itself?
