Now he's afraid the past is coming back to haunt him. Trevor English, the nosy reporter who occasionally shares John's bed, is demanding information about the crimes. He also wants more of John's affections. But John can't afford to give in to either demand without risking the revelation of Seaside's biggest secret: the town is a haven for shifters, and John is one of them. To solve the crime--and prevent more victims--John must delve into the past. Many members of Seaside's shifter community are involved, but it's becoming harder and harder to tell which residents can be trusted. Even John's family isn't above suspicion. The body count is rising, and it looks like John is the killer's next target.
