Synopsis

Most humans are oblivious to the preternatural nightlife that surrounds them in New York, but Cal Leandros is only half human. His other half is monster, the legacy of his father. Cal and his half-brother Niko have managed to stay one step ahead of them for three years, but now Cal’s father has found them again, and Cal is about to learn why they want him, and why they have always wanted him: he is the key to unleashing their hell on earth. The fate of the human world will be decided in the fight of Cal’s life.
