About this ebook
LAST WOLF, the third and final book in the Bad Wolf series is now available.
Detective Lara Mendes's hard work finally pays off when she gets the chance to join the homicide detail. There's only one catch; she has to partner up with a cop no one wants to work with.
John Gallagher is a veteran homicide detective who loves stomping bad guys and hates partners. When the Lieutenant saddles him with this green kid named Mendes, his first reaction is to ditch her but a call comes in about a body on the river bank and the rotation says they're up.
What they find are human remains, mutilated and partially devoured. Their investigation reveals a killer stalking the city with a pack of vicious, feral dogs.
And the suspect believes he is a werewolf.
But this is Portland, where crazy bastards outnumber normal ones ten to one. Except there's another catch. The crazy werewolf guy? He isn't crazy...
Author's note: Bad Wolf is my first novel and remains a favourite. This full-length novel is the first in the Bad Wolf series about two homicide detectives trying to stop a monster. A murder mystery and police procedural, it's premise is simple; cops versus werewolves. I had an absolute blast writing this series. Now that's it's done, I miss these characters. The books, in order, are:
1 Bad Wolf
2 Pale Wolf
3 Last Wolf
Dive into a world of monsters, gritty detectives and the werewolves that haunt the moonlit night.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Screenwriter Tim McGregor turns author with his ebook, "Bad Wolf". McGregor spins a believable yarn about a serial killer who just happens to be a werewolf. Ivan Prall has been cursed and is looking to end the curse by killing the man responsible for it. Mismatched police officers Lara Mendes and John Gallagher are given the task of stopping the killer. They begin the search as disbelievers, but end the chase for Prall fighting for their lives. Bad Wolf is a quick-moving, entertaining novel that will keep readers on the end of their seats. Highly recommended.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Lara Mendes has just been promoted to detective. The only stipulation is she is partnered with John Gallagher, a detective known for over stepping the line. Her job is to keep a leash on him. Their first case together is a lady killed by dogs. They then stumble upon Ivan Prall. Prall was a foster kid that was abused.Lara and John find his hiding place in the basement of an abandoned shack. While looking around, they find some journals and some chains and leather restraints. They think he is just a little off but Prall thinks that he is a werewolf. But he must actually be one since the local stray dogs are forming a pack with him has the alpha.Lara and John are on a race to find Prall, solve the murder of the mauled woman, and stop the dogs from attacking. They also need to learn to get along with one another.I liked this story. There was a good mystery along with a paranormal twist. I admit that the story did feel like it drug in a couple places. But the ending clearly made it feel like it was the first in a series. I am curious to see what happens next. I think if you like paranormal thrillers you will like this book. I received this book for free from Book Rooster in exchange for an honest review.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I received a complimentary copy for review. I found Bad wolf to be a well written story, with likeable and well developed characters. I would describe it as a police procedural with a twist. The twist being a bit of supernatural horror in the form of a werewolf that should appeal to fans of both crime thrillers and horror stories alike.
