DARK SILVER by Tristan Hartup and Vincent Garcia

Todd Bigby is a traumatized and lonely young boy living in a small run-down Pennsylvania town with his estranged long-suffering and stressed out mother and the two of them had never their normal selves ever since the traumatic and sudden death of Todd's father. One night, Todd and his mother run into a young man in the fields near their house, the young man is bloodied, weak, delusional and near death, they attempt to try and get him to a hospital but he pleads for them to get away from him and leave him and he then passes out. So against her better judgment, Todd's mother decides to bring the young man into their home and nurse him back to health, upon coming to, it is revealed that the young man has absolutely no memory of who he is, where he came from and what happened to him, he has no ID on him and no one else in town recognises him. So, Todd and his mother agree to let the young man stay with them until he's fully healed and if he's regained his memories, and so in return, the young man, who they decide to call “Jim” for the time, makes a promise to them to help them out as much as he can. Despite some odd things about him, such as him healing rather quickly, him apparently having keen senses of smell and hearing, and him having recurring specific nightmares of people and animals being ripped apart, Jim is proving to be very loyal and supportive and he ends up developing a strong close bond with the two. But before too long, news reports of mysterious and menacing figures described as supposedly dark riders begin to flood in, and eventually, Jim's memories start slowly surely coming back and his dark secrets are revealed, that he is, in fact, a werewolf. And the dark riders are lead by a powerful and sinister masked figure who is hunting him down and will slaughter anyone who stands in their way.
