The Beast

A werewolf is preying upon the denizens of a small town. The only people who know what it is, who understand what is happening, are children. A group of third-graders isn't exactly the most credible source of information, especially when it comes to the fantastical. They grow up being ridiculed, shunned, bullied, and mistreated by their peers and the broader community. Years later, it returns, but this time, Thomas and his friends are prepared for it. As grown werewolf hunters, they must use every bit of courage they have to face the monster. Nothing short of killing it will suffice.

Thomas awakes from surgery after a brutal stabbing leaves him nearly dead. He finds himself a helpless prisoner, awaiting trial for murder, until the full moon comes, and he changes for the first time. When he shifts, Thomas doesn't have control. As he commits savage act after savage act, of murder and dismemberment, his nerves shatter. Now on the run, he seeks solace with a pack of his own kind, but his presence throws the pack dynamic into chaos. As all hell breaks loose around him, Thomas tries to flee from his horrible past.

After running away from his pack, Thomas tries to begin a new life on the other side of the country. Little does he know that a crazed bounty hunter pursues him. A bounty hunter who knows his dark secret. The pack, unwilling to let go of one of their own, tracks the young werewolf from Florida to Oregon. With Thomas's life on the line, and the possibility of the pack being exposed, they must race to find him before the bounty hunter.
