At 23, Colt doesn't have many complaints. He has an apartment, a steady restaurant job, a plan for his art career, and he is preparing for his first gallery exhibit with his best friend, Becca. But a chance meeting with a mysterious girl at a bar throws everything he knew about the world into disturbing chaos. It's been twenty years since Danielle's life was destroyed by the Kryrie. Now a Lapsi, in addition to grief and guilt, she bears the weight of forced loneliness, a side effect of the Lapsi curse. On an impulsive visit to her hometown, she stumbles across something she thought she lost all those years ago: family. Her nephew, who should have died, is alive and grown, and an artist, like her. Unable to stay away, Danielle seizes on the chance to know Colt, hoping it will appease some of her survivor's guilt and allow her old wounds to finally close. But Colt's best friend, Becca, is abducted by Kryrie and his life is once again shredded by these torture-loving demons. Now, alongside some old and new faces, Danielle and Colt are in a race against a clock to do the impossible: find the Kryries' lair, save Becca, and manage to kill these new Kryrie without sacrificing any more friends.
