Publisher's Synopsis
Bloodthirsty creatures stalk the English countryside...
Paranormal investigator Marcus Mortlake leads a busy life. Between battling the supernatural and dodging faculty review boards, the professor has little time for personal affairs. But when a man he met a long time ago mysteriously dies, it isn't long before a sinister turn of events drags Mortlake into the mist-shrouded moors beyond the city. Something has been stalking England... Something not of this world. But for once, his team gets help from a powerful ally. As Mortlake finds out, a secret department of Her Majesty's government has been assigned to investigate possible supernatural activity. Led by the foxy Desmond Drax, they too have a stake in these strange occurrences. Forced to form an uneasy alliance with Drax, Mortlake soon finds himself fending off a pack savage beasts. These voracious creatures seem to phase in and out of our reality. And with each kill, the pack grows larger. Can Mortlake and his allies stop these beasts' relentless hunt before it's too late? Or will the pack continue to grow and devastate all of England?
