An ancient race of lycanthropes survives in modern LA and its numbers
are growing as packs convert the city's downtrodden into their fold.
Stuck in the middle are a local dogcatcher and the woman he loves,
whose secret past haunts her as she fights a bloody one-woman battle to
save their relationship. Meanwhile, dog packs fight and scheme all
around the them, hiding out in old warehouses, city kennel cages, or
the plush comfort of suburban homes. Paying no heed to the moon, these
packs change from human to wolf at will, squaring off against one
another as they seek dominance at any cost.
"Sharp Teeth" is a
novel-in-verse that blends epic themes with dark humour, dogs playing
cards, crystal meth labs, and acts of heartache and betrayal in
Southern California.
