"The Wolf hunts. The Wolf feeds on its prey. But this is different. These killings... He has a goal in mind." Ashford, West Virginia, is drowning in fog-and fear. Midnight howls pierce the mist. A symbol, drawn in blood, violent visions, and an uncanny, terrifying supernatural entity. Something hunts. Something kills. And it's coming for them... whether they're ready or not. Carlos Hernandez expects nothing from his sophomore year. His mom works overtime, leaving him to wrangle his little brother Nico and survive another ordinary day in dreary Ashford. Nothing ever happens here. Nothing exciting. Nothing strange. Until she arrives. Ashley Vale walks into school, and Carlos's world tilts. The darkness he's spent years pretending doesn't exist stirs the moment he meets her eyes-something dangerous, something ancient. Ashley is hiding a secret dark enough to swallow them both... a secret that could leave its mark on everyone
