Synopsis

When half-human Cal Leandros wakes up on a beach littered with the slaughtered remains of a variety of hideous creatures, he is not especially concerned. In fact he cannot remember anything, including who he is, and that is exactly the way his deadly enemies like it. As Cal tries to piece together his identity and the events that left him there, with his brother Niko and their friends trying to reach him, the creatures that want him gone close in on a man who no longer knows what he is capable of.
