Eclipse City was supposed to be an ordinary city-bright, crowded, and alive with millions of people. Then the strange behavior began.
At first, people wearing pup-play-inspired masks, ears, paw gloves, tails, and colorful outfits are dismissed as part of a harmless trend. But soon, something far more disturbing emerges. People begin losing control over their behavior, forming mysterious groups throughout the city, and becoming increasingly disconnected from their former lives.
As the condition spreads from neighborhood to neighborhood, Eclipse City descends into chaos. Hospitals overflow. Communications fail. Stores are abandoned. Roads become sealed behind military checkpoints. The government declares a complete quarantine, trapping everyone inside.
Matthew Vale, Adrian Cross, Leo Park, and Julian Reyes, four young men who find themselves caught in the disaster, refuse to give up.
Matthew uses his knowledge of architecture to discover an abandoned underground maintenance facility, and the four begin transforming it into a fortified bunker. They gather food, water, generators, medical supplies, radios, and everything else they might need to survive.
But the city above them is changing.
Entire streets become territories controlled by mysterious groups. Abandoned buildings become shelters. Masked figures wander through the darkness wearing tails and elaborate pup-inspired costumes. Strange messages begin appearing on walls, and survivors start disappearing from their supposedly secure shelters.
Then Leo discovers something buried within the city's computer networks:
PROJECT PAW.
The outbreak may not have been an accident.
As the four friends uncover secrets about the experiments that preceded the disaster, they face an impossible decision. Do they remain underground and build a new civilization beneath the ruined city, or risk everything by attempting to escape the quarantine zone?
