Riley Jenson, a rare hybrid of vampire and werewolf, works alongside her twin brother, Rhoan, for Melbourne's Directorate of Other Races. This organization is designed to police the supernatural races and protect humans from their depredations.
While Rhoan is an exalted guardian, a.k.a. assassin, Riley is merely an office worker—until her brother goes missing on one of his missions. The timing couldn’t be worse.
