The dark gods of my people are back, and they're hunting the shadow-winged - like me. Being a bush pilot is the third most dangerous job in the world. I'm Piper Tikaani, and I take that in stride. As an Inupiaq Raven Clan shapeshifter-flying is second nature, whether in my supernatural form or tackling the skies in my Super Cub. Strong winds, rugged terrain, and rough clients are all the excitement I need. But when a family friend is found dead on the roof of his wilderness cabin, I find myself caught in a world of hidden treasure and a new, dark reality. Now the people I love hide things from me and ancient, terrifying beasts stalk the land. To survive, I must discover the truth about the treasure, my clan, and myself-which means exposing my secret to the very creatures hunting me: ice age were-predators determined to see me dead.
