So much for senior year. Maverick's world has been turned upside down since losing his best friend, Tarick, to the Black Eye Kids. Now, he finds himself in the middle of some government conspiracy, and he has to leave home... forever. It would be easy to just run away, but Maverick is hell-bent on bringing down those responsible for Tarick and his mother's deaths. But he's not alone. Marcus might have survived a gruesome experiment to turn him into a soul-sucking demon, but he's not quite the same easygoing slacker he used to be. And Astid has agreed to join them on their quest to get justice. Meanwhile, there's a new threat more dangerous than the Black Eye Kids or secret agents. And it's hungry.
