Monster Hunter Alpha

Earl Harbinger runs Monster Hunter International, and he carries a secret: nearly a century ago he was cursed to become a werewolf. When word reaches him that one of his oldest enemies, a viciously dangerous werewolf who once worked for the KGB, has turned up in the remote woods of Michigan, Earl goes to settle old scores.

Someone else is also at work in those woods, trying to create a new species of werewolf. As darkness falls, Earl has to make a stand alongside a handful of local residents, with plenty of firepower and no intention of giving up.

The third book in Larry Correia's Monster Hunter International series shifts focus from Owen Zastava Pitt to Earl, and plays out largely in one small town, with entries from Earl's own journal filling in his past.
