Bag om Dusk
Book 2 in the Award-Winning Series:
Byron warned them to never go out after dark. There are dangerous creatures prowling in the woods, driven down from the mountains in hunger. Mary didn't believe him.
Then she saw one last night. After it ripped apart a pack of wolves.
Now Byron is gone, and both John and Percy may have fallen prey to hydrophobia-for there's a frightening madness in their behavior. On top of that, Claire has gone into premature labor and Mary will do anything to save her stepsister's baby.
She'll even ride off alone to Geneva, seeking a midwife, knowing that both Claire and her baby may die without one. But it's already midday and Mary fears she won't make it back before dark, when the vampire-like creatures will begin to hunt again.
And dusk is fast approaching...
