After Kate Hale dodges her predicted death, she learns the anti-fate group Wyrd wasn't her only enemy. Complicating matters, it seems a highly respected colleague tampered with a forecast. Nobody believes Kate's discovery, so she must discreetly determine if the hero she admires is involved in the conspiracy to undermine the oracle net. But Kate sets aside that investigation when Dalia Swanson, Becker's maybe-sister, is flagged in a missing persons case. All she and her horny werewolf boyfriend would like is some quality time together-except this is the one case that demands their immediate attention. With New Karma threatening to fill the hole Wyrd left, Kate and Becker struggle to define their relationship and unpredictable future, especially where it concerns Becker's fate of turning violently feral.
