Werewolves - a novel by J.J.F. Musgrave When a car crash drags combat vet Jake Michaels back to Sydney, he walks into a city coming apart-people turning into something fast, smart, and coordinated. At the heart of the chaos stands Dr. Kimberly Watkins, the ex he never stopped loving, and an eleven-year-old amnesiac they call Jane...who survives the impossible and begins to change everything. As the outbreak rips through nightclubs, hospitals, and safe-zone walls, Jake and Kim discover the monsters aren't bound to the moon-they're bound to a Queen, a single controller who can drive an army with a whisper. Silver only slows them. Headshots barely hold them. The only real way to end it is to cut the crown and break the Bind. Hunted by soldiers and werewolves alike, Jake, Kim, and Jane race across a barricaded Sydney-through triage tents, command bunkers, and riverside dead zones-trying to synthesize a cure from a forbidden plant and to unmask the Queen behind the slaughter. But when Jane's true nature surfaces, love and loyalty collide with a revelation that could save the city-or doom it. Blending military thriller pace with near-future bio-horror, Werewolves reimagines the myth as a hive-organized, relentless, terrifyingly human-and asks what it costs to protect a family when the definition of human won't hold.
