But Kate faces her biggest obstacle yet when it is found that her werewolf companion Derek is almost dead. As her research takes her to the Midnight Games, the ultimate paranormal combat competition that is by invitation only, she and Curran, the Lord of the Beasts, discover a sinister scheme that might permanently change Atlanta's shapeshifting population.
