It takes aliens (or an Emily Jane) to help us see our society for the bizarre, sugary, microplastic-poisoned dream it is. Edgar Cantero. From the author of On Earth as It Is on Television and Here Beside the Rising Tide... Many full moons ago, a young American boy with ambition in his belly and the moon in his veins followed his destiny west, determined to carve a path to success no matter the carnage. Two centuries later, a city is captivated by the strange and savage murder of a young woman. Her roommate, Natasha, no longer able to afford their apartment alone - and hounded by both rumours of wolves and a pop-star's angry fan-swarm - has resorted to living in her car. There's nothing left for her... except vengeance. Across town, Shane LaSalle is about to see his wildest dreams come true. He already has a gorgeous apartment and a high paying job in venture capital. Now the partners of Barrington Equity have invited him to board the company's private jet for an exclusive retreat. But with partnership finally in his reach, Shane realizes he's losing his taste for just how ruthless and all - consuming the firm is. Epic and electric, American Werewolves brings readers from the wilds of the New World to the opulent board rooms and golf courses of the twenty-first century, where devouring the weak is an American birth right as old as the country itself.
