This fan written story picks up after the events of Backbone, a post-noir narrative following the adventures of raccoon private eye Howard Lotor through a dystopian Vancouver. Howard has gone missing, presumed dead. However, his partner Renee Wilson believes he still may be out there. Now working for their old enemy, Clarissa Bloodworth, Renee will see how far the proverbial rabbit hole goes as Bloodworth plots to overthrow the apes in power while a mysterious vigilante wreaks havoc across the underworld, undermining their plans. AU Notes: This project began prior to the release of Backbone's prequel and/or sequels. This dated take plays on the possible future of the franchise inspired by the game, cut content, and the Kickstarter trailer.
