Beschreibung

Can a woman who has lost her memory piece together the truth about her family, her life, and a friend’s murder? After waking up with amnesia in hospital, Cassie returns home to a life she doesn’t recognize. She gradually learns that dodgy associations from her old life have left her estranged from her husband and alienated from her children. Cassie no longer wants to be the person she was before—but breaking away from her past and from her wealthy family is not so simple. Meanwhile, she still suffers confusion and experiences nightmares about an unknown man, while hearing from her friend Marcie that she had been having an affair. When the police dismiss her after she receives a frightening phone call, Cassie vows to uncover the truth. But when a body is found, a series of revelations brings Cassie’s past into shocking clarity . . .

    Christian Davis, a former big-firm lawyer turned social justice warrior, has just been assigned the case of his life by the State of California. Jamel Jackson, a sixteen-year-old black boy, has just been convicted for the brutal rape of a prominent movie star. 
    Christian digs into the case with gusto, as he examines the trial court transcript for any hint that the trial court might have erred in Jamel's case. As he gets into the investigation of the case, he's shocked at what he has found. Corruption at the highest level is staring him in the face. 
    The problem is, the person who Christian suspects was actually behind the rape is somebody who is powerful and connected. And this person will stop at anything to make sure that young Jamel stays in prison for the crime. 
    Christian soon finds himself not only fighting the system, but also trying to stay one step ahead of the man who Christian knows was the one who raped the actress. 
    Because Christian knows that Jamel will not remain in prison for this rich bastard's crime. 
    And he will risk all, even his life, to make that doesn't happen.

    In the remote town of Kapaskacing, deep in Northern Ontario, something ancient has awakened. When a series of brutal, inexplicable killings sends shockwaves through the community, the local police are left scrambling for answers. With no signs of human involvement and only the most vicious wounds left behind, whispers of an old legend—the Ma’iingan, a vengeful spirit wolf—resurface among the townsfolk.Inspector Bradley McDonald, newly promoted and eager to prove himself, is sent to investigate the strange deaths alongside the seasoned and cynical Sergeant Lucas Bouchard. As they dig deeper into the town’s history and the chilling details of each killing, they uncover something far more sinister than they could have imagined. The evidence points to a predator larger and deadlier than anything they’ve encountered—an otherworldly creature fueled by an ancient wrath.The locals are convinced the Ma’iingan has returned, angered by the town’s environmental exploitation and the desecration of the land. Bradley and Lucas must navigate the tension between science and superstition, relying on the knowledge of an Ojibwe elder, Awasis, who warns that the spirit of the wolf won’t rest until the damage is undone. But as the body count rises, it becomes clear that no one is safe from the creature’s wrath, and time is running out to stop it.Shadow of the North is a gripping blend of supernatural horror and Nordic noir set against the haunting backdrop of the Canadian wilderness. As the line between myth and reality blurs, Bradley and Lucas must confront not only the mysterious force stalking the town but also their own fears as they race to uncover the truth before the Ma’iingan claims its next victim.
