It's been six months since we took down the Tower, ending the violent rule of the Dark River Pack in New York. Life is better than I've ever known it, living on my father's estate in Boston with my fated pack. But the shadows of the past hang over us, and Arben, my dark prince and guardian of our pack, rarely makes it home.

On November 23, 1849, in the heart of Boston, one of the city's richest men vanished.

His shocking discovery engulfed America in one of its most infamous trials.
