Packaged together for the first time, Call of the Wolfcontains two of USA Todaybestselling author Susan Krinard''s sexiest supernatural novels. In Secret of the Wolf, hypnotist Johanna Schell takes Quentin Foster under her care to discover if his claim to werewolf blood is just a delusion. But she is horrified to learn that, under hypnosis, this tender, thoughtful man becomes violent, vengeful, and evil. Now, to save him, she has no choice but to trust him, and even love him. In To Catch a Wolf, wheelchair-bound Athena Munroe and convicted murderer Morgan Holt live on the fringes of both humanity and werewolf society. But their irresistible attraction to each other threatens to expose their true natures-and free their hearts.

Depuis qu''elle a transgressé l''interdit suprême en assistant au rituel sacré de l''union d''une Elue avec un Ailuri, dans les montagnes du Bouclier du Ciel, Rhenna a été bannie de son peuple, le Peuple Libre. Depuis neuf ans, exilée, déshonorée, marquée à jamais d''une cicatrice au visage, Rhenna vit seule, aux frontières du territoire sacré. Jusqu''au jour où les esprits du vent colportent jusqu''à elle une rumeur terrifiante : son peuple a été attaqué par les barbares. Les Ailuri, mi-hommes mi-panthères, qui peuplaient le Bouclier du Ciel et fécondaient les Elues, ont presque disparu, et les adorateurs du dieu de pierre, que l''on dit d''une cruauté sans limites, ont voué le monde au chaos... Quand Rhenna apprend que le dernier Ailuri vivant a été capturé, elle décide de le sauver et de partir pour Karchedon, cité sinistre où le grand prêtre Baalshillek et ses adeptes célèbrent le culte sanglant du dieu de pierre. Avec l''aide de la chaman Tahvo de Samah, de Cian, le dernier homme-panthère, et de Quintus le rebelle, Rhenna va conclure une alliance et tenter de sauver le monde de la malédiction du dieu de pierre.
