Moonlight Medicine

As both a veterinarian and an M.D, Dr. Evelyn Eisenhart is a unique woman. Comfortable with her quiet apartment, cantankerous cat, and mundane USDA job, her life is thrown into chaos when her abilities attract the attention of a young, handsome werewolf named David who is desperate to find a cure for his affliction. Suddenly the world of the Wolfkin leads straight to her front door. David sees Evelyn as his savior, but others of his kind see her as a threat to their existence and David as a dangerous stray. When David realizes he's brought Evelyn to their attention, he must protect her from their murderous intentions, even as Evelyn is swept up into a bizarre series of assassination attempts, insane werewolves, and pack politics. Evelyn's life will never be the same again. Assuming she and David find a way to survive.

It has been almost two years since Dr. Evelyn Eisenhart's life was forever changed by being drawn into the intriguing, yet dangerous, world of the Wolfkin and falling in love with a werewolf named David. As she works in secret to discover a cure for the werewolf virus, strange things begin to happen and Evelyn feels like her life is unravelling...again. Could these bizarre events be an indication of another sinister Vulke plot, or is Evelyn's paranoia getting the better of her?

A lyrical and honest portrait of illness and the way it changes life and faith, from the award-winning author of Things Seen and Unseen. “A fabulous book—brilliant, tender soulful.” —Anne Lamott In the winter of 2009, Nora Gallagher was told she had an inflamed optic nerve, cause unknown, that if untreated would leave her blind. With this news, and the search for a diagnosis and treatment, her once busy and fast-moving life tunneled into a quieter country she calls Oz: unfamiliar, slower, deeply rooted in uncertainty and vulnerability. Moonlight Sonata at the Mayo Clinic, written as Gallagher was still recovering, is a moving meditation on serious illness, what helped her through and what didn’t, why a wall exists between the sick and the healthy, and what can take it down partway. It is also a testament of modern faith—accepting of both science and intellect—and a hard-won revelation of what lies at the heart of ordinary suffering.

With the Vulke plot now exposed, Dr. Evelyn Lucia Eisenhart finds herself in the middle of a Wolfkin war, and facing a mutated virus that is somehow changing innocent people into werewolves without them being bitten or scratched. Hopelessly outnumbered by an army of these strays under enemy control, the Wahya and the allied packs prepare for battle while Evelyn toils in the lab to find a cure no longer just for herself and David, but in the hopes of using it as a weapon against the Vulke. Time is running out. How far will Evelyn go for a chance to defeat the Vulke? Will she only lose David or will she lose everything?
