Keeping secrets can sometimes be a very wrong thing to do.
When a stranger steps onto Highgate land in the middle of the night, Dillon has to decide whether to chase him off or let him into their pack house. Sergeant, Dillon's partner and pack alpha, takes the decision out of Dillon's hands. The stranger looks like a wolf they know from Crossways. He's disoriented and doesn't seem to know his own name. Something's very wrong, and Dillon intends to find out what's going on.
The stranger turns out to be just that—a stranger and no one they know at all. When the horrifying fact comes out that the stranger has had his face surgically removed then replaced with another, Dillon's terrible past comes back to haunt him. The government agency he used to work for think he's disappeared for good—or do they? Have they found out where he lives now? Do they want him back on their books as a spy?
Dillon can't go back—no way, no how. In order to remain free and at Highgate, he has to work out a plan that will keep every single pack member safe. But most of all he must protect Sergeant, the love of his life and the one man who knows all his secrets.
Or most of them, anyway...
