WEREWOLF COP by Andrew Klavan - SIGNED FIRST EDITION BOOK
See all titles by Andrew Klavan.
“Though
the title might suggest more lighthearted fare, make no mistake, this
is a gritty crime novel at heart. Klavan is a suspense expert, building
slowly through the first half of the book and then setting a rapid,
tense pace for the second. And for all of that, Klavan also infuses the
text with a plentiful wry humor.”
Edgar
Award-winning and New York Times bestselling author Andrew Klavan,
brings us a supernatural thriller about a good cop in the grips of an
evil curse. In the tradition of Dexter and The Shield, the first in a
riveting trilogy about a crime-fighter on a quest to control the beast
within.
Zach
Adams is one of the best detectives in the country. Nicknamed Cowboy,
he’s a soft-spoken homicide detective from Houston known for his
integrity and courage under fire. He serves on a federal task force that
has a single mission: to hunt down Dominic Abend, a European gangster
who has taken over the American underworld.
After
a brutal murder gives them a lead, Zach and his tough guy NYPD partner
Martin Goulart feel like they’re finally on Abend’s trail. But things
get complicated—and very, very weird. Goulart’s on-the-job enemies are
accusing him of corruption. And Zach is beginning to suspect that
Abend’s evil goes beyond crime—perhaps to the edge of the supernatural.
As his investigation continues in Germany, Zach finds himself lured into
the impossible. In a centuries-old forest under a full moon, a beast
assaults him, cursing him forever. In the aftermath, Zach is transformed
into something horrible—something deadly. Now,
the good cop has innocent blood on his hands. He has killed—and he will
kill again—in the form of a beast who can’t be controlled or stopped.
Before he can free himself, he’s going to have to solve the greatest
mystery of all: How can you defeat evil when the evil is inside you?
“The most original American novelist of crime and suspense since Cornell Woolrich.” - Stephen King
