Yet another freebie from Robert W. Walker -
Werewolf's Grief (Bloodscreams #2)
Quote:
DEATH BY TOOTH...
An escaped madman is heading toward Chicago, leaving behind a trail of corpses. The victims are savagely torn apart--and partially eaten. Is the killer merely a cannibalistic psychopath... or a creature from the darkest pits of superstition?
...AND BY CLAW
Only the psychically-gifted detective Abraham Stroud dares to think the forbidden names: Wendigo, Sasquatch, Werewolf. And only Stroud faces the most terrifying truth of all...
Wolves travel in packs.

Here's another freebie from Arthur G. Slade that's classified as YA but doesn't sound like it -
Northern Frights Trilogy (Draugr, The Haunting of Drang Island, & The Loki Wolf)
Quote:
This omnibus collects all three Northern Frights novels into one. Over 500 pages of fright, action and adventure for young adults and those who are young at heart.
----
DRAUGR
"Are you afraid of the dead?" her grandfather asked.
Sarah Asmundson will discover the answer to that question. She is prepared for her grandfather's scary stories, but is anything but prepared when events from the story about a draugr--a man who comes back from the dead--begin to happen around her. A tale to frighten and entertain the young and the young at heart. The first book in the Northern Frights series.
"Draugr is guaranteed to scare from the first sentence: 'Grandpa was going to murder us,' and the suspense doesn't end until the last page." -- From Independent Publisher
THE HAUNTING OF DRANG ISLAND
"If you're going to die, die with your boots on. That's what my Grandpa Thursten used to say."
When Michael and his father arrive on Drang Island for a camping trip, they find that all the rumors they've heard are true. The island is desolate, sparsely populated and far from civilization. It seems the perfect place for Michael's father to finish the last chapters of his book of Norse stories. Unfortunately, it soon becomes apparent that some of the other rumors they've heard about Drang Island -- stories about spirits, strange sacrifices and a serpent lurking in the ocean -- might also be true!
THE LOKI WOLF
"On the third night the worst nightmare -- the very worst -- invaded my mind. Loping behind me was a gigantic wolf, its jaws snapping together and tearing off pieces of my flesh. There was no blood. No pain. But bit by bit he swallowed chunks of my body until nothing of Angela Laxness remained."
When Angie dreams about being devoured by a giant wolf, her parents tell her it is only her imagination. But later, while on a vacation in Iceland with her grandfather and two cousins, she begins to wonder if the dream wasn't a warning. First, there are strange scratches outside her window. Then she finds out that sheep have recently been disappearing from her uncle's farm. But it isn't until she and her cousins go to the old croft house that they discover the horrifying truth.
