On the night he was to make his first kill, Marcus escaped.

Enlisting the aid of her brother, Judson, they begin to hunt Gregor. They are soon joined by the Chief Daniels of Norwich Police Department. As the hunt continues, the death toll rises and a city grows fearful. With each battle Marcus sees that he is not only fighting Gregor, he is also fighting for his soul, for Maddy's life and those who have come to mean so much to him.
