The Sim Ru Prophecy

The Jaguar of the Backward Glance, Book Two

by Andrew J. Peters

Now a fugitive from two murder investigations in New York City and a bizarre, big cat attack at a bank in Barbados, Jacks, a werecougar, flees to South America to find the capitán of a militant group of werecat dissidents, rumored to have a central base deep in the Amazon. The world is on the verge of all-out war between shifters and humans, and Jacks needs to somehow broker a deal for peace. The lives of his human boyfriend, Farzan, and Farzan’s family are at stake.

But a special U.S. intelligence agency emerges as a new, possibly even more dangerous threat. Both the werecat guerillas and the U.S. government will stop at nothing to get an arcane codex with instructions both for unleashing the primordial sabretooth god and for banishing feline shifters forever. While Jacks dodges danger from both sides and decodes the ancient book, he’s left with the impossible choice of how to use it.
