About this series
As a paladin and prime of the Dark Goddess, Ginnevra travels the world with her werewolf companion Eodan, protecting the innocent and destroying evil. Her latest mission: to escort an anointed to the holy city of Abraciabene to receive the highest ordination of the Goddess's servants—the first man ever to do so.
Now Ginnevra and Eodan must guide a party of paladins and anointed, all of them at odds with each other, on a monthlong journey through the badlands. Hounded by evil werewolves and followed by a mysterious creature only Ginnevra can see, her greatest challenge may be from the very man she is sworn to protect.

1
As a paladin of the Dark Goddess, sworn to protect humanity against the Goddess's evil sister the Bright One, Ginnevra has dedicated her life to fighting monsters, especially the werewolves who are the pinnacle of the evil goddess's creation. But when a fatal confrontation seems to put her under the Goddess's condemnation, Ginnevra must leave her paladin company to discover why. In a village plagued by monsters on the edge of civilization, Ginnevra believes she understands what she faces. But when she meets a werewolf who challenges her understanding of who monsters really are, the encounter tests her faith to its limit. And when she learns the truth about the monsters attacking the village, she must choose between doing her duty and forging a new path—one that may condemn her forever.
- Missing by Moonlight: The Books of the Dark Goddess, #2
2
Paladin of the Goddess Ginnevra Cassaline and her companion, the werewolf Eodan, want to teach people the truth about how good werewolves turn their backs on the Goddess's enemy, the Bright One. But as a new challenge arises, they must temporarily set aside their personal quest. Men and women are going missing in the city of Uparde, including Ginnevra's aunt, a retired paladin, and Revered Parenogne, leader of Uparde's religious community. When Ginnevra receives responsibility for solving the mystery, the task draws Ginnevra and Eodan deeper into the secrets at the heart of the city. Between their conflict with someone intent on getting credit for finding the lost, and the ongoing interference of a mysterious woman apparently gifted with the Goddess's power, can Ginnevra discover the truth before time runs out for all the missing?

3
An assignment to mediate a religious conflict takes the paladin Ginnevra and her werewolf companion Eodan to the city-state of Quinizelle, site of Ginnevra's greatest failure. Four years earlier, a bandit attack caused the death of the king's sister, the woman Ginnevra's paladin company was sworn to protect, and nearly cost Ginnevra her life. Now, Ginnevra's former best friend returns, claiming to have proof of what really happened four years ago. Caught between past tragedy and present conflict, Ginnevra must stop Quinizelle from descending into religious war—and face truths she wishes had never come to light.
