A good review from BOOKLIST for Andrew Klavans new thriller WEREWOLF COP. Advanced Review – Uncorrected Proof Issue: February 1, 2015 Werewolf Cop. Klavan, Andrew (Author) Mar 2015. 304 p. Pegasus, hardcover, $25.95. (9781605986982). Zach Adams, a Houston cop assigned to a federal task force in New York, is on the hunt for Dominic Abend, leader of an international criminal organization that threatens to destabilize the world’s economy. As the bodies pile up, the plot takes a supernatural turn; Adams believes Abend to be looking for an ancient dagger associated with werewolves in Germany, a dagger that holds unimaginable power for the wielder. While traveling in search of more information about the dagger, Adams survives a brutal attack by a savage beast, and when he awakens he knows he has been transformed—but into what? Klavan (A Killer in the Wind, 2013) has a knack for creating relentless, fast-paced narratives, and this thriller-horror hybrid is no exception. Unfortunately, the story drags at times, thanks to an overabundance of plot: Adams’ inner demons, his misogynistic partner’s possible corruption, a crazy affair, werewolves, Nazis, world collapse, etc. Horror fans may get bogged down, but those who want a little bite to their detective stories may enjoy the ride. — Craig Clark amazon/Werewolf-Cop-Novel-Andrew-Klavan-ebook/dp/B00LADUN4O/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1421101697&sr=1-1&keywords=werewolf+cop
