Vincent Corinthos has two things going for him: he’s a top operative of a secret agency tasked with handling paranormal threats, and he’s half-god. Normally that’s a combo that leaves him well-equipped to handle any problems that come his way.
Until now. Something is snatching Boston’s most powerful paranormal entities right off the streets. Vampires, lycanthropes, fae, gremlins – no one is safe. No ransom notes, no bodies, no witnesses.
