Jake Marlowe is the last werewolf. Now just over 200 years old, Jake has an insatiable appreciation for good scotch, books, and the pleasures of the flesh, with a voracious libido and a hunger for meat that drives him crazy each full moon. Although he is physically healthy, Jake has slipped into a deep existential crisis, considering taking his own life and ending a legend that has lived for thousands of years. But there are two dangerous groups--one new, one ancient--with reasons of their own for wanting Jake very much alive.

Meet Jake. A bit on the elderly side (he turns 201 in March), but you’d never suspect it. Nonstop sex and exercise will do that for you—and a diet with lots of animal protein. Jake is a werewolf, and after the unfortunate and violent death of his one contemporary, he is now the last of his species. Although he is physically healthy, Jake is deeply distraught and lonely. Jake’s depression has carried him to the point where he is actually contemplating suicide—even if it means terminating a legend thousands of years old. It would seem to be easy enough for him to end everything. But for very different reasons there are two dangerous groups…

Jake Marlowe is the unhappiest 200-year-old werewolf you are ever likely to meet. In fact, Jake is reported to be the world's last surviving werewolf and while he is musing about suicide, others are hunting him down. A rabid anti-occult group has vowed to annihilate him for sport and a group of vampires want to keep him alive for equally selfish reasons: Apparently, a werewolf bite can serve as a sort of sun-block to guard the undead from deadly exposure. As Jake fights to be the captain of his own fate, he gets welcome news: He might not be the only living werewolf after all. An unconventional slant on an archetypal story.
