Portland becomes the target of a psychopath preying on young women. Tess swore to put him down. However, Tess’ plans are disrupted as she is simultaneously preoccupied with many other issues. At the same time Tess is burdened with controlling a pack of half-demons, participated in town’s convention, tries to fulfill her responsibilities as a backup for a local singer and meet the deadline for finishing her latest book.

Among the terror of the deranged villain the readers would find in this book wit, humor, and entertainment that will keep them flipping pages. The story pushes forward with fast-paced excitement as you follow Tess and her sidekick Scrap through the streets of Portland.
