Murders soon rock their small town and the sisters face their greatest loss when their mother dies. The twins will do anything to bring their mother’s killer to justice while fighting against ancient monsters that invade the town. Hunter and Mercy face their new responsibilities and embrace their destiny which could put their bond at risk.
