Soviet Russia dropped an atomic bomb on one of its own towns in the winter of 1962. The intention was to exterminate an entire tribe of men, women, and children known collectively as The Wolf People. A few survived and escaped to the West. This is the story of what happened to the remaining Wolf People, and their bitter struggle to stay alive. Present day. The Wolf People cannot stop killing when "the Rage" takes hold. In turn, they are relentlessly hunted to the brink of extinction by government death-squads. Then a child is born and brings about a transformation of the group. But does he represent a chance for his people to at last control their blood-thirsty nature, or represent a threat to the entire human race?
