The Full Bloods have laid low after Liam's attack on Kansas City, but cannot afford to do so any longer. After events in Book 3 weed out even more of the shape shifters, the remaining ones have evolved into something stronger to survive. Half Breeds, like any other animal, have adapted to their more dangerous environment before being trampled by it. Also, with the Skinners taking down bigger prey, other creatures emerge to fill the gap and Cole encounters things ranging from The Jersey Devil to a pack of gargoyles. As the Full Bloods step in to reassert their dominance, they call for backup from their European brethren, which attracts another import: the Gypsy clans responsible for guarding the secret of forging Blood Blades. With Skinners becoming more divided after uncovering the morally questionable research of Doctor Jonah Lancroft (curator of the Lancroft Reformatory where Henry and Misonyk were kept in Book 1), Cole and Paige must decide whether to try and unite the Skinners or try to join forces with the Gypsies. Between old grudges and new disputes, neither choice is very healthy.
