When the Wolfs Bane Blooms: Jook and Gypsies Vol. 3

The saga continues . . . Once again, our small group of Jook and the humans they are protecting within the walls of the compound face peril from the ever-rising population of Ruv Bengalo. Adding to the unshakable danger, Shandor discovers an imprisoned Jook in Black Jack's lair who is near death. He must coordinate an immediate rescue attempt though he is outnumbered in hostile territory. Meanwhile, back on the compound, as the wolfsbane continues to grow, Susannah feels threatened by Fifika's secret knowledge of an ancient potion made from the flowers of the poisonous plants. If survived by the drinker, the potion assures that they can be bitten by a werewolf and be "turned." There hasn't been a successful turn in centuries; attempts result in horrific death. The young bloodline's terror at the thought of feeding a human being the deadly botanicals is compounded by her suspicion that Giselle will volunteer to be the guinea pig. Susannah fears her friend's life will slip through her fingers. It is high summer, and soon the wolfsbane will bloom.
