Winner Best Screenplay at the Lake Travis Film Festival<\/span><\/p>\n

Animal Control, the secret government werewolf eradication project has been reactivated. Two orphaned wolf children saved from extermination are recruited by their elder werewolf guardians to defend the pack. Samantha and Leon share the bond of seeing their parents and brothers and sisters die at the hands of the men in the black trucks. The only things that matter are saving their kind from extinction and revenge on those who destroyed their lives.They are avenging angels, they lay waste to their enemies while fighting to keep from losing their human side to the beast that lives inside them.<\/p>\n

\u201cHave to be careful now,\u201d said Leon, \u201cafter Dallas they\u2019ll be alert. This next guy, Sonny, he\u2019s a family man, drinks an occasional beer with the boys after work, no mistresses. He\u2019s a true believer in the sanctity of marriage. A stern but loving father. His ass is mine.\u201d
\n\u201cAny kids?\u201d asked Samantha.
\n\u201cYeah. Two girls, twelve and fourteen.\u201d
\n\u201cWe let mommie and the kids live,\u201d she said. “We’re not animals.”
\n\u201cFine with me but we make them watch,\u201d said Leon, \u201cI had to.\u201d
\nSamantha checked the GPS, \u201cYoda said ditch the car here in Monroe, take I-49 south. That\u2019ll take us into Slidell.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]This started out as an extended epilogue to Wolf Child.\u00a0 I sent it to Faye Schwartz. Faye read Wolf Child and immediately got back to me.\u00a0 “Mike this epilogue should really be the prologue to a new book.” Having been told that epilogues and prologues should be put into the actual story rather than hanging out in “never read” land I took her advice.<\/p>\n

As it turned out, this proved the stronger work.<\/p>\n
