Miami is still in the hands of the wereleopard clan. Sekhmet’s assassination has been dealt with, and Samara’s attempt to take over the city has been stopped for now. But things aren’t simple for Kess, especially now that she has Samara’s son, Rafe, to deal with. While others see only a spy, Kess is determined to help the damaged young man abandoned by his mother.

Rafe is torn: his mother left him in the hands of the wereleopards, presumably to die, but Kess has treated him more like a guest than a prisoner. But Rafe still feels a sense of loyalty to his werehyena pack, and he’s uniquely placed to gather information that his mother will need if she ever hopes to take Miami. Things grow even more complicated for the young werehyena when Cormac’s non-were sister comes to town for a visit. Rafe finds himself fascinated by the girl, finding more and more reasons to question his loyalty to his pack.

Rafe knows his mother isn’t done with Miami or Kess. In the final bloody conflict between wereleopard and hyena, which side will he choose?
