When Sophia and Van travel to a perilous forest in Romania, where packs of werewolves and hideously ugly vampires rule the twilight hours, they discover that Sophia is much more than a beautiful woman who has fallen hard for a loner with a secret. She's "The Mother", a mortal woman with the power to save all werewolves from the darkness that haunts their hearts. But first she must prove herself worthy of the title.
