Red is back again, she has a few riots to deal with, a nest of Throwbacks running feral, a traitor returned from the dead and to top it off, her Lycaeon thinks she would serve Wolfkind best in London. There's the added problem of a five hundred year phenomena to contend with and Red may have a rival for her position as Sentinel Exemplar. Just another average day then...

Victorian London and in a very short time, the inhabitants of the slums of Whitechapel will find that they have a bigger worry than the usual deprivation, disease and crime. There's a killer in town but not just any killer, he likes tearing his victims apart, feeling their terror as well as their entrails Jack The Ripper is his adopted nickname and he certainly lives up to it The part of the Wolf Society that inhabits these streets and the ones in close proximity to Whitechapel are also concerned. If the murderer is not captured shortly, he'll draw attention of the unwanted kind, the kind that may dig deeper than the Wolves would like - deeper than they can afford. If the Hume Police Force should find evidence of Werewolf activity, Wolves will find themselves the hunted once again. Chased from England's shores as they were once before. Chased or eradicated. Hazel must decide whether her Sentinels should find the murderer or allow the Police to find him - but if her suspicions are correct that he is a Throwback and the Police do find him first, then the Werewolf society will be hunted and eradicated anyway

Deadlier... What do you know about the society you live in? What other societies share the same living space as you? None? Guess again. Werewolves are make-believe, they don't exist. They are legends from times gone by when science was as accurate as horoscopes are today - but even horoscopes can hold a truth. You think you know your neighbours, your town and your surroundings; but everyone has a secret, some are darker than others. Hide in plain sight. Keep everyone in the dark; give nothing away. Leave no witnesses. These are the rules governing a society that exists within our own. Despite what you believe, Werewolves are real. They live amongst us and have fought for and against us for millennia. Legends of Wolves roaming the lands which were once named Sherwood Forest are just stories... Aren't they? Tell that to the young women who have been brutalised, their skin and flesh shredded from their bones with the finesse of a skilled and ruthless butcher. He made sure the girls were going to die, but later rather than sooner. A sadistic attacker is on the loose - could the cure be worse than the symptom? You don't believe it? Not in this day and age? Guess again.

Werewolf - an unrestrained beast of anarchy or a cold and relentless, calculating killer? If you cannot answer this with absolute certainty, it's possibly because the werewolf you met is more evolved than man ever dreamed. Werewolves do exist and they exist alongside our society, they have their own rules and hierarchy, they hide in plain sight and have done for millennia. Sometimes, the female of the species is Deadlier... than the male.
