[ BOOK FOUR ] The hunters become the hunted... Carter Hale and her friends saved Beacon Hills from the evil Dread Doctors bent on destroying it. The pack has faced countless challenges through the years: power-hungry Alphas and master assassins-but worst of all-fighting against each other. With the Beast and Raeven put to rest, they are finally able to get back to their regular lives, or so they thought. Panic soon spreads through the town and the pack struggles to protect each other when people they once knew are completely forgotten; being erased from reality. The infamous Wild Hunt comes to Beacon Hills and they will do everything in their power to wipe the town off the map, like so many before it. The pack must stick together to fight for their own survival and, ultimately, the fate of Beacon Hills, but everything changes when someone close to them is taken. Stiles Stilinski has been captured and erased by the demonic Ghost Riders who are continuing to wreak havoc. Even the members of the pack have forgotten him and it causes their lives to drastically change. While Malia struggles with her inner coyote, Lydia brings them one step closer to finding Stiles. And Carter will stop at nothing to free Stiles. Yet with each passing day the tension between Carter and Scott grows. Then Carter uncovers a long-hidden secret, one that shocks her to the core, and realizes tragedy may be unavoidable. As she learns more about her destiny, she realizes that before they can defeat the Wild Hunt, she has to sacrifice something of grave importance to her.
