Description
A monster-hunter teams up with super-powered teens to protect her brother in this fast-paced adventure novel that's X-Men meets Men in Black. Lori Fisher hunts monsters. Not with a sword or a gun, but with an interdimensional creature called Handler. Together they take down "feeders"--aliens who prey on mankind. When Lori touches a feeder, Handler's impossibly large jaws appear and drag the beast into another dimension. It's a living--or was, until a job for the Lake Foundation goes wrong, and Lori stumbles across the Nix, a group of mutant teenagers held captive on the docks. Now the Lake Foundation is hunting Lori, and if they find Lori, they find Ben, the brother Lori would do anything to protect. There's only one thing to do: strike first. Lori teams up with the Nix to take on Lake, and to discover why the Nix were kidnapped in the first place. But as she watches their powers unfold, Lori realizes the Nix are nothing like her. She has no powers. She has...Handler. Maybe she's not the monster hunter after all. Maybe she's just the bait.Product Details
