Another name for a baby crow is a fledgling, it is called that during the time in a bird's life when it is grown enough to leave the nest but is still fed and protected by their parents. In many ways Lucy Hart is a fledgling, a newborn Crow discovering the world on her own while still under her Dad's thumb. In her search to understand herself she turned to Jasper Dent, another child of a serial killer that managed to overcome his parents and is somehow leading a normal life. Jazz's life isn't as normal as Lucy imagines it to be. After facing both of his serial killer parents in one night Jazz is barely functioning on his own. He abandoned his mission to hunt killers and is honestly just trying to stay alive. However everything changed when he got an email from Lucy Hart asking for his help. Jazz can’t leave this girl in the same hell he grew up in so he decides to do everything he can to save her. However the Crows have begun a new game, one more dangerous than ever. With the competition to become the King Crow in full throttle Jazz would have to face every single Crow in existence to save a single girl. Lucy isn’t helpless but with her father’s grip still around her psyche she is unsure of how to help anyone, including herself. Jazz’s story inspired her to set out on her own path but she is surrounded by Crows all more than willing to kill her the moment she shows weakness. Will Jazz ever dismantle the Crows and find Lucy? Will Lucy give up her humanity and become a Crow? Will either of them survive?

Jasper Dent's is the son of American's most notorious serial killer.He's been trained all his life to be just like Dear Old Dad: trained in the fine art murder, and how to be a crazed killer than can go unnoticed and outwit FBI and Intel forces. This story, taking place before his father's arrest, encompasses a seemingly quiet Halloween Night as Jasper, and his rudderless best friend Howie, venture into a haunted house for the first time. Jasper isn't worried about the House -after all, a guy who's had 'Faces of Death' as a bedtime story and who played with body parts as a child has seen much worse than what this Haunted House can offer. But little does Jazz know. Not all demons are external. And, especially on the darkest night of the year, those demons like to come out and play... BASED ON THE YA SERIES BY BARRY LYGA.

What becomes of the hunter when the chase is over? Several months have passed since Jazz brought his knife-packing, body-maiming, and mind-screwing serial killer parents to justice in the Big Apple. Everyday since then, Jazz has secretly been struggling to keep himself together. Reliving the horrors of his childhood every day and night, and being forced through the legal system for his actions in New York, the stress on Jazz has been getting more and more paralyzing - so much so that he feels like he can't breathe. It definitely doesn't help that Connie, who has recovered from her injuries and PTSD from the events in New York, is heading back to the city of horrors and is leaving Jazz alone, which in turn, results in an embarrassing court order that demands Jazz receive mental health care before the trial proceeds. Feeling lost, Jazz is desperately searching for his shreds of humanity, and tries to discover who he is after the hunt, and find a new goal for his life. The opportunity to do all that, he believes, comes when a Seattle-Born cop calls Jazz out for help with a serial killer unlike anything the city, or the country of America for that matter, has ever faced before. Despite protests from Howie, G.William, his therapist and the courts, Jazz breaks all the rules and agrees to take on the case - thinking that it couldn't possibly be worse than the man hunt involved with the catching of his father. Determined not to let Jazz become bait again, Howie accompanies Jazz to the Emerald City to be of emotional support. However, the dynamics of their friendship have changed and in a city under attack, nothing is what it seems. Told in the powerful but raw prose that defined "I Hunt Killers", Beast of Prey is a brand new, fresh-off-the-press extended fan fiction story that takes you into the AFTER of the finial Killers book. At times shocking, and at times romantic, Beast of Prey is the ultimate Killers fan fic and a must real for any IHK crow.
