Three soldiers recently returned from the war in Afghanistan are in
custody at Ft Carson in Colorado Springs. They're werewolves,
suffering from post traumatic stress, which has left them unable to
control their shapeshifting, unable to interact with people. Kitty
agrees to see them; after her own battles in KITTY'S HOUSE OF
HORRORS (Kitty #7), she feels a great deal of sympathy for them.
The soldiers were part of a unit fighting Taliban insurgents in the
remote mountains of Afghanistan. Their captain, the original
werewolf, transformed the others; their new-found strengths
including the ability to survive untold violence while infiltrating
remote enemy positions, made them the perfect soldiers for this
mission. But it was the captain who kept the group together and
kept them sane; when a particularly potent mortar attack killed the
captain, the remaining lycanthrope soldiers grew more and more
wild, until the final three survivors were captured and delivered
to Dr Shumacher at the Center for the Study of Paranatural Biology
for treatment. Kitty tries to bring the men into her own pack, to
socialise them back into some kind of normal existence, but the
group's sergeant has other plans: he's intent on driving out Kitty
and Ben and becoming the leader of a new squad of killers.
