Los lobos del invierno (Crónicas del Lobo 2)

Set in a modern, elegant, and technological world, The Wolves of Winter is the second novel in the magnificent "Chronicles of the Wolf" saga, by the author of "The Vampire Chronicles" and "The Mayfair Witches."

No one creates new worlds, populated by terrifying and romantic characters, like Anne Rice.

It's December, and oak fires burn in the stately hearths of Nideck Point. For Reuben Golding, now imbued with the gift of the wolf, this Christmas promises to be like no other...

From the shadows of the mansion emerges a tormented ghost, pleading, unable to speak but not to embrace and desire with desperate affection... As Reuben is ensnared by the passions and longings of this spectral presence, astonishing secrets are unveiled that speak of a strange underworld, of ancient spirits who possess their own old and fantastic stories and who harass with their dark powers...
