Thoreau

Thoreau Jones, 15, has had a terrible life since his older brother left Gray Shadows. His parents constantly remind him that it's his fault Emerson took off, just like it's his fault for being "retarded." If only his brain wasn't so broken, Mommy Daddy wouldn't have to "fix" him every day or keep him locked in a cage in the attic. When his parents finally give up on him, they ship him off to Five Fangs with the warning that Emerson will either keep him or kill him. Thoreau knows his brother won't want him and can only hope that his death will be quick.

Thoreau Jones is the darling of the Five Fangs wolf pack. Everyone loves him, especially his new family - including a wolf companion who knows exactly how it feels to lose your other half. As Thoreau matures, so do his relationships, including the one with his bestie boyfriends, Wayne and Archer! The three boys learn to adjust with what life throws at them, from adding a new family member to starting school, but nothing can prepare them for what happens one night on a full moon run!
