Details
Rue is a mongrel among her own people, who would never claim her as one of them. The taboo among non-humans is strong, at least between the fox and wolf people, and those who commit the ultimate sin among their kind were killed, even those not yet born. Rue is the unwanted result of this taboo, the child born to a kitsune and werewolf. Law demanded her death, but compassion of the wolves, pity of foxes and disdain of both brought her to where she is today. Raised to believe she is disgusting to even humans, Rue finds herself at the mercy of a man who never saw her as anything less than a beautiful mystery.
Now, thrust into one of the most influential families in the nation, Rue learns she is among allies, as well as enemies. The Family has granted Rue a second chance, and she must prove herself, and help keep the Family and the sanctuary they offer to non-humans and Old Blood’s alike from the ever growing danger of the Hunt. Can she, an unwanted disgrace, live up to their expectations and overcome the stigma of her lineage?Rue is a mongrel among her own people, who would never claim her as one of them.
