Review Summary
Jack Dwyer runs a pub with his sister. Then his best friend Artie dies and comes back as a ghost, knowing he has to tell someone about the Prowlers and stop them. Prowlers are were-wolf like creatures and the entire race is soon against Jack when they find out he knows about them. Can Jack stop the Prowlers before they kill him and more of his friends?
