The Warden's Oath

She found the vector the Council spent a century hiding. They sent a warden to bury it—and her. Dr. Nessa Okonkwo has the data. The lycan Council has the bullets. The warden they send, Kade Voss, has a rule he's never broken: he doesn't kill scientists. He breaks the contract. He kills the next warden they send. He takes Nessa into the Cascades with a stolen truck and a plan that only works if they expose the Council before the Council finds them. Three states. One lab. One chance. When they learn the Council is about to poison a city's water supply to force shifters into hiding, Nessa and Kade stop running and start hunting. A dark bodyguard lycan thriller about a species on the edge and two people willing to bring down the people who put it there.
