Shapeshifters Hal, Robbie, Abigail, and Emily are trapped in the old world with no magic, no means to get home... and no shapeshifting ability!As if that's not bad enough, Emily is sick and worsening by the hour. They have to make it to safety soon. But where is safe? The abandoned city? Their old island?The desperate shapeshifters face an enemy worse than dragons and other mythical creatures – people! But not just ordinary people. Driven crazy by a terrible virus more than a decade before, and eking out a life on the deserted streets ever since, the only way for these gangs to survive is to hunt and scavenge. Known as scrags, and marked by lesions and scars, they're easy to recognize... and best avoided.Easier said than done.
