Burnt Blood - Ryan Holden

. .

Résumé :
In the heart of bustling, eerie London, a vicious killer lurks in the shadows, the 'puppet master' has their sights on Officer Reynolds and anyone tied to his rescue-25 years ago as a child. The truth about what happened that night was concealed, even from Officer Reynolds, who has no memory of his childhood. For a good reason: he was subjected to brutal torture and experimentation. Little did the foster family know, that George was a pureborn werewolf snatched from his real parents, and they made him into something else, something far more powerful. The family house goes up in flames as an experiment goes wrong. Luckily, young George is saved, his memories are wiped, and the dormant werewolf within him remains hidden until his thirtieth birthday. Officer Reynolds' life was finally on track. Five years earlier, he lost his wife and unborn child in childbirth. Little did he know that their deaths were the first steps in a cold and calculated plan to make George pay. His world comes crashing down after his friend, Officer Chris Wells, is murdered, and the crime scene is rigged to make George look guilty. George is forced onto a path to clear his name, but he is in for a rude awakening as all his secrets are laid bare, and he discovers what he truly is: a werewolf. This journey of discovery pushes George to his limits as he strives to save everyone he holds dear. In doing so, George uncovers who the 'puppet master' is, and it's the shock of his life, turning everything he thought he knew on its head. George's life becomes a baptism by fire, thrusting him onto a treacherous path on his werewolf journey. Amidst the chaos, he discovers just how strong he is and who his true friends are. Prepare yourself for a spine-tingling trip deep into the heart of darkness, where love and horror entwine within the chilling confines of a twisted killer case as George awakens to the supernatural. George is on an emotional rollercoaster. Prepare to join him on the ride. Burnt Blood - The Werewolf Within will keep you on the edge of your seat, daring you to confront the profound darkness lurking in the city's shadows.
