About Pack Hunters by Lee Cushing
Catherine Jordan is an operative for a secret organisation that hunts down evil. Her next mission far outweighs any other she has ever experienced, this time the risks are personal – they involve her girlfriend Daphne, who has gone missing when a plane is hijacked, a beastly tropical island and a deadly lottery where nobody wins, nobody human anyhow.
This Pop Culture Horror story is not based on medieval folklore or Germanic pagan times, it is a modern day thriller with elements of American Werewolf in London, the series Lost and Hunger Games. The phenomenon of lycanthropy activity is rampant. The shape-shifters heavily populate a deserted tropical island, surviving, thriving, hunting and devouring anything that breathes….they are ravenous, craving human flesh!
Catherine is not fooled by the illusions of a stunning yet dangerous tropical island, that masks a breeding ground for the pack to launch from. From there they are sprawled throughout our cities as humans morphing into wolves, whenever the need arises with howling successes. Her desperate efforts to rescue Daphne in time are driven by their love for one another, but are all her attempts futile? And who, if anybody, survives the beautiful island’s morbid, evil, blood-soaked environment?
Goodreads Review 5 Star Review – Pack Hunters is not your typical werewolf novel. For whatever reason in the horror genre werewolves have gone through a few transformations. Initially they were blood-thirsty almost-animals with zero control and little to work with as actual characters. Then (aka twilight/trueblood) werewolves were suddenly puppy-dogs with loyal and protective instincts. You will get neither of those incarnations here. Cushing’s werewolves are cold, calculating, and incredibly capable bad guys. They have a plan to create their own little bloody theme park, and the Trust is needed again.
However, a former member of the Trust has been ensnared by the plot, and the fight becomes a personal one…
I recommend this book to horror/thriller readers that are tired of the typical tropes, as this is an original and inventive story of the first order.
