Sinner

Gr 9 Up—The public believes they know Cole St. Clair. They know about his public and not-so-public life. He was a rock star and a drug addict, and he left the limelight for reasons all his own. What the fans don't know is his darkest secret. Cole can shift into a wolf, but is doing everything in his power to control that side of him. He has now returned to California and is trying to keep both his addiction and his wolf side in check. Listeners who discover Sinner before the rest of the "Wolves of Mercy Falls" series will have no problem understanding the story line, but libraries may want to have the first books available for them to get the complete picture. Dan Bittner and Emma Galvin share the narration flawlessly, giving listeners the varying points of view with completely different styles. This will make a good addition to a high school or public library collection.—Elizabeth L. Kenyon, Merrillville High School, IN.
