In London she encountered the Kin. They are satyrs and centaurs, Nephilim and wraiths—all hunted and slaughtered for their body parts. Fleeing back to the United States, Angela discovers the Kin are everywhere, and they are tired of being prey.

“The series trends away from horror and further into dark fantasy territory with this volume, and we are here for it.” —Barnes & Noble SFF Blog
“The Barkeresque and Gaimanesque elements blend in an intriguing way during the story and make for an interesting read . . . Highly recommended!” —Rising Shadow
“Tim Lebbon knows how to spin a tale that envelops the reader in a world they know, and then twists that reality into a unique playground for his characters to battle monsters and create stories which always sidestep cliché . . . Lebbon has shown that he cannot write a story that bores readers, regardless of the genre. With this series, he mixes in the best of the genres he loves—horror, fantasy, and thriller/adventure—resulting in another winner. His writing keeps the story moving while his building of the world of the Kin is folded into the plot seamlessly.” —Cemetery Dance
