Leighann Baker, Paige Harper's roommate, asks Paul Rice to find her cousin. David Baker, who has suddenly disappeared, leaving his two children behind. Paul naturally helps her, but even before he sets out for Falls Corners, Wisconsin, where the disappearance took place, he discovers that the missing man's wife has also disappeared and the police think Baker had something to do with her disappearance and is hiding from them. Once reaching Falls Corners, Paul finds that the community is enchanted in more ways then one and the area is a hot bed for biped wolf encounters whose ability to change form and look human has enabled them to infiltrate government agencies, including the CIA.
