Edinburgh 1788Lindsay Somerville may be the most elegant werewolf in Paris, but he was once a tormented, abused prisoner. Sometimes, he still feels the ghost of his old chains under his fine clothes. When Lindsay learns that his former captor is en route to Paris, intent on hunting him down, he reluctantly agrees to leave the Continent and return to his home city of Edinburgh to carry out an important mission for the leader of his small pack.His task is straightforward enough. He is to charm an elderly book collector into selling him a mysterious set of papers—papers that may hold clues about an old mystery. It's a trifling assignment for a man of Lindsay's talents. Except that the bookseller may not be quite what he seems, and Lindsay is not the only one with an interest in the papers…And then there is Drew Nicol. When Lindsay meets Drew—a grim, hardworking architect— his entire world is upended. Drew is obstinate, plain-spoken, and seems unmoved by Lindsay's considerable charms. Lindsay is not used to being refused, but Drew Nicol rejects his advances with a firmness that borders on the insulting. Yet something keeps drawing Lindsay back to him… Is Lindsay simply moonstruck? Or is Drew bound to him in ways neither of them yet understands? This is the first book of the Capital Wolves duology — the story concludes in Master Wolf, book two.
