In the hopeless town of Wakefield, Maine the population is void of faith. An acceptable part of life that your name could be put on a list that meant within hours your life is over. You're dead. 
Demons are a very real concept in the depths of night and one slight mistake and you're done for. And in the very heart of everything are the In Betweens. 
Unsuspecting they are carelessly sold in their human lives and are given a wonderful choice to make. To be Fallen or to be an Angel. Seems simple, right? Wrong. A deep hunger  is embedded in them from the beginning and they are given a handy dandy list to feed that hunger. Very few come out with a shred of humanity left, so what hope does Aradia have?

The Hound

65 parts Complete

Antique store owner Liz brings home a Victorian taxidermy hound from auction, unwittingly unleashing dark forces on her wife and son. ***** Nat Loman has finally married the love of her life, Liz, and is getting used to her role as stepmother to Liz's 5-year-old son, Liam. The Loman family runs a bustling antique business so they attend a sale where a striking, black taxidermied hound is up for auction. Liz picks it up for the business, but it ends up being stored in their home, where Nat notices strange things occurring. She quickly discovers the past residents had died violently. Then she hears from a friend about the myth of "the devil's dog", a hound that perches in the shadows, tearing families apart from the inside. Soon, people around the Lomans are dying, and Liz is changing, darkening. It's up to Nat to save the woman she loves from the darkness closing in, and to save Liam from danger no matter what she has to sacrifice.
