Samantha (Sam) Cain is a young female police officer in a small town in Washington State. She is beset by nightmares—being chased by a ravenous beast. In the beginning of our story, Sam discovers a murder victim in an abandoned church, and briefly spots a homeless suspect she dubs the Raggedy Man. As Sam investigates the Raggedy Man, and becomes acquainted with Elias, a handsome newcomer to the town, she is also plunged into an analysis of her own life. She was adopted at an early age and believed that her parents were killed in a car accident. But memories begin resurfacing that cast all of this in doubt. In addition, more run-ins with the Raggedy Man lead her to believe that he has some kind of superhuman abilities. Bullets don't seem to harm him. Will Sam discover the secrets of her past? Will she be successful in taking down the Raggedy Man, and what is his connection to her? Is he truly supernatural in nature? All answers will be revealed in Legacy of the Wolf.

Legacy of the Wolf

It was roughly a day and a half drive from Blackrock to Fairfield. Sam had stayed for a few hours in a Motel 6, popping pills to knock her out long enough so that she wouldn't be nodding off behind the wheel. 


During the morning Sam had spent an hour on the phone with her foster mom Kathy. It had felt good for the two of them to catch up, and for Sam to vent about being dismissed from work for a week. Kathy threatened to kick the captain's ass but Sam talked her down. The conversation had then turned to Uncle Brewin, who hadn't gotten any better. At least he hadn't gotten any worse. Not yet. Both Sam and Kathy knew at this point that their old friend was living on borrowed time. 


On that somber note, Kathy had wished Sam well on her "research mission" and the two ended their call.
