It’s an extinction-class event; the ultimate monster comes from a dying universe to threaten the Earth. Hunter doesn’t want to be a monster slayer.

Half Navajo, half Welsh, gifted with shaman blood and second sight, Hunter’s not quite a magical girl, but she’s all the hope humanity has left, so she doesn’t need the passionate distraction of a bad-boy Grim Reaper who’s after her heart, and a lot more.
