Follow the shifters of Full Moon Security as they fight hard for family, friendship, and love. SAM Like all the other agents of FMS, Samuel Fitzgerald left the US Government's secretive Paranormal Research Board to focus entirely on protecting the homeland. But when Col. Harrington disappeared six months before without any word, their supernatural-focused missions seemed to have disappeared with him, and now they're stuck working plain old, boring security cases. That is, until Sam and his dragonkin boss get a call on a phone they didn't know Harrington possessed. A demon-worshiping cult has surfaced in East Texas, and it's up to him to save the small town of Potterswell, and the most beautiful coroner's assistant he's ever met: Faith Riley. CARTER Carter Grant is like any other bear shifter out there: he wants a nice tree to sharpen his claws on, some peace and quiet to keep away his memories of the war, and a mate. But when his dragonkin boss Kris Cole and FMS's resident witch Tabitha show up out of nowhere, he has a feeling they're going to take the first two from him. How was he to know their mission to stop a possession and series of murders-by-fire in the town of Shamrock would lead him to the third? Now, though, it's a race against time as Carter has to compete with a group of international hitmen who have descended on the town with the same goals in mind. These shifter hitmen may be more than Carter can handle, even with the help of Lucy Skinner, Shamrock's finest fire investigator.

As ghosts of residents begin to revisit the living and concert-goers begin to change for some reason into shapes not normally their own, it's up to Ryder Williams and Stephanie Kaufman to save Camelot and all its residents. Not to mention the hundreds of visitors who are now stalking the streets looking for fresh meat. LUKE With Kris Cole and the elusive dragonkin shifter Hunter Jackson away from the office, Tabitha finds an old case the PRB had to ignore years before. Someone is murdering high class call girls in the small town of Prophet, Arizona. Not just any murders, either. Somehow, they're stealing their hearts without any signs of surgery! When Luke arrives on the scene, he finds the beautiful Molly Long looking for her roommate, and they're talking their way past the security gate of an exclusive club for the rich and powerful. Is this some cult, or just a deranged madman who has figured out how to tear the hearts from his victims? As the shadows lengthen, though, they'll have to race to find the killer, and to hopefully find Molly's kidnapped roommate. KRIS Kris and Hunter disappeared three months before in the northern tundra while on their search for Col. Harrington.

Their discovery is complicated, though, by a paramilitary group striking out from the deserts of western Mexico.
