Kita Nekai, on the run and the smallest of her shifter clan-a calico cat
among lions and tigers-is being hunted. She was expected to accept her
role as her father's successor whether or not her cat was up to the task
of leading the clan. She disagreed. Now she's less than a step ahead of
the hunters, bone-tired, cold, and living hand-to-mouth in the city of
Haven. And that's the high point of her day. She's also drugged,
"accidentally" turned into a vampire, and sentenced to death for
recklessly creating a rogue shifter who tortures its human prey. She's
got 72 hours to find the rogue, evade a city full of hunters, prove
she's not responsible for the rogue, and keep the vampire council from
killing her. All while sorting out an apprentice mage, a married
ex-boyfriend shifter-hunter, and the vampire who made her.
