Shapes
A CIRCLE OF DEATH.
The shapeshifter stalked the moonlit night, thirsting for blood, hungering for the flesh of new victims. Once a man, now a grotesque monster, he left behind him a bloody trail of mangled corpses. Before him lay only more death.
A RING OF MADNESS.
They were the believers, men and women sworn to exterminate the beast from the face of the earth. But all their strength could not prevent the hunters from becoming the hunted. For soon they were trapped in a terrifying game that led not to death-but to everlasting pain and eternal hell. Their only hope for survival was to succumb to the powers of the shapeshifter they had once sought to destroy.
The Hyde Effect

from AuthorHouse
In the hills of Southern California, a series of violent and gruesome deaths occurs within the space of a few hours. The murders are attributed to some unknown, savage animal.
Precisely one month later, college student Meg Talley is attacked in the same manner. Astonishingly, she survives, but when she insists that her assailant was a hideous monster-like creature, she is called hysterical.
Journalist Douglas Morgan, private eye Nick Grundel, and horror novelist Blake Corbett, however, have each theorized that the mangling, incredible though it seems, might be the work of a werewolf. Now they team up with Meg to puruse an intensive investigation. When a suspect is apprehended and confined, the four are on hand. But neither skeptics nor believers are prepared for the bone-chilling terror and cataclysmic violence that will be unleashed in the night of the January full moon...

ABANDON HOPE, ALL YE WHO ENTER YORK HOUSE
It was such a lively old house, elegant and airy, but it had one minor flaw. The people who checked in, never checked out-alive.
Undaunted by rumors of evil, Cathy Lockwood walked right into the festering heart of the crumbling mansion, determined to find her brother. She was sure he was alive-in some form-and she swore she'd rip York House apart, timber by timber, to find him.
She thought nothing human or inhuman could scare her away-until she confronted the horrifying secret that waited for her in the dark, fetid basement. The she could scream to high heaven, but only hell would hear her.
