After leaving behind life with the Pack, mercenary Kate Daniels and her mate - former Beast Lord Curran Lenart - are having a hard time adjusting to a very different pace. When the Pack offers Curran their stake in the Mercenary Guild, they seize the opportunity. But what Kate and Curran don't realise is that the odd jobs they've taken on are all connected. An ancient enemy has arisen, and Kate and Curran are the only ones that can stop it - before it takes their city a part piece-by-piece.
