But to most, those who prey on innocent human lives, Cal is a sworn enemy. After years of cases, Cal finds himself in the middle of the strangest adventure of his life. People are dropping dead all over Washington D.C., and the cause is a mystery.

In the dark corners of the everyday world, strange begins walk among us. They live as postal workers and taxi drivers, lurking in the sewers and roaming the streets, ever awake and always on the hunt. And only Cal McDonald has the special talent for spotting and seeking out what most of us will never see. |
