Trust doesn't exist in the new world. When your neighbor could be a bloodthirsty killer, trust is the last thing you give out for free. In the years that follow Dr. Ikor Cisek and Dr. Haydn Hale's gene replacement experiments, humans are no longer the species on top of the food chain. Werewolves stalk the streets at night and walk among humans during the day. After decades of being hunted, they've learned to blend in. But neither the doctors nor the werewolves accounted for Elara Cannon: a girl born with healing powers that baffle even the ones that created her. When you've bred a monster in a world fueled by fear, how do you teach it to save you?
