Prequel to the best-selling Bite Back series. "I'd lost my entire team, and nearly lost my life. In a way, I had lost my life, and was left with this-a tightrope walk between hunting down creatures people didn't believe existed, and being locked up as one." After a career-ending incident on a covert military operation, Amber Farrell is surprised to find herself back in her home town of Denver working as a rookie policewoman. But what happened in the army casts a shadow across her life from which she will never be free. The prequel to the Bite Back series introduces Amber Farrell, a kick ass lady with a secret problem-she's been bitten by a vampire. She's working hard to start a new life, hold down a job and meet all the expectations put on her. When people start to die suspiciously in Denver, Amber has to decide between duty and instinct, between what she should do and what she must do.
