Ever since Anna Latham was turned into a werewolf three years ago, her life has been miserable. Abused by every male higher in rank than her, which means all of them, she finally learned never to resist them or look back into their eyes. Forced to give them 40% of her earnings, she barely makes enough money working two full time jobs to support herself. She is malnourished and living in poverty and fear. But when she does see a picture of a missing young man, she cannot stay silent. She has seen that young man in a cage in her alphas basement, a case used for unstable wolves. And so she calls Bran, the alpha of all alphas and he sends his son Charles Cornick out to investigate the goings on in Chicago.
