When that enemy shows up dead, the crew of Evasion must decide whether to chase the leads left by a dead monster or protect themselves.Those leads will take EB and Trace into the dens of crime lords, the homes of judges, the hearts of secret bases-and the presence of the foster parent Trace ran away from at the beginning of everything...
