Yana 'Yankee' Coolidge was surviving pretty well on her own in New York City. Living casually, and quite lonely, amongst a city full of chaos, Yana is in for a rude awakening when the world, as she ignores it, collapses around her.

She's got plenty of practice living like others don't exist, but the world isn't the same anymore. People, and the good ones at that, matter more than ever.

In a treacherous fight for survival, Yana must find herself again, and find faith in others, before a savaged fate rips through her.

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.
