The Tasmanian Devil. The Executioner. Killer of Chosen.
But before Taz bore any of those names, he was an easy-going fur trapper who dreamed of sailing across the sea and visiting faraway lands . . .
Trace Pierre Tasman’s simple life as a mountain man in 1842 Montana takes a bizarre twist after a visit to his mother’s Cree village. He’d dismissed his relatives’ superstitious gossip about a “she-demon” haunting the mountains, but when he senses something stalking him, he begins to fear that perhaps he should have heeded their warnings.
Angelique has been alone a long time. When she fled her native France for the desolate mountains of the Canadian Territories, she had only one goal—to put as much distance as possible between her and her depraved sire. But now loneliness is her greatest enemy, and she longs for someone with whom she can share her eternity.
When Trace happens upon Angelique one evening in the forest, his concern for the bedraggled but beautiful woman dissolves into terror as she attacks and nearly kills him. Night after night she hunts him, and their violent encounters turn Trace’s existence into a living nightmare.
Yet the insatiable desire Angelique ignites in him overshadows his dread of her brutal attacks, and as Trace’s attraction to her grows, he fears her love for him is only a prelude to his death.
The Last Trace is a novella introducing a key player from the WORLD OF THE CHOSEN, a series focused on the individuals within a secret society of powerful blood-drinkers whose violent struggles for dominance in 'The Game' threatens to spill out into the human realm.
