- Unmasked: An FBI Agent’s Hunt for a Shapeshifter with Author D Werkmeister Teri M Brown 30:32
My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is D Werkmeister, author of the book Volk. Born and raised in Nebraska, Darin Werkmeister now lives outside of Philadelphia PA, where he was an FBI street agent for 21 years. During that time, he investigated White Collar Crime, Organized Crime, Money Laundering, and Domestic Terrorism. While in Philadelphia, he was an eight-year member of the FBI SWAT team. Prior to the FBI he was a Marine Corps officer. VOLK is his first novel.
In my book review, I stated Volk is an FBI thriller with a shapeshifter. I can honestly say that I wasn’t sure what I would think about this novel and told Darin that I might not be his audience – werewolves are just not my thing. However, his characters are so strong and engaging, and the storyline so realistic (despite the werewolves), that I couldn’t put it down.
Terri Watson is the main FBI agent. She is working the case of her career when she sees the beast. But who can she tell? Imagine seeing a werewolf and trying to explain that to your boss. Instead, Terri takes matters into her own hands, and the result is … let’s just say a great twist to the normal FBI thriller story!
I enjoyed that we see things from Terri’s point of view as well as the wolf’s. And Darin made it easy by making all of the wolf’s thoughts in first person, present tense. It was rather spooky to be in the head of a werewolf, but this change in POV and tense really added to the story.
If you love a good thriller/suspense, even if you don’t normally go for shapeshifters, I think you’ll love this book. I know I did!
