Tessa and Sasha, best friends since birth, are on the brink of a major life transition: high school graduation. Sasha has her future mapped out—she plans to become a teacher and has found a way to fund her education by enrolling in a mysterious drug trial. Tessa, on the other hand, is uncertain about her path but knows one thing for sure—she wants nothing to do with HOWL, the secretive organization her father works for, which often keeps him away from home for long stretches. In his absence, Tessa has shouldered more responsibilities at home, fostering a growing resentment.
Their lives take an unexpected and terrifying turn when a grotesque beast crashes the Wolfen teens' full-moon celebration. Sasha's involvement in the drug trial begins to yield unexpected and troubling side effects, and Tessa becomes determined to uncover the origin of the monstrous intruder. As the mystery deepens, Tessa's burdens grow heavier, leading to a tragic turn of events that forces her to reconsider everything she thought she knew.
With the balance of their world at stake, Tessa faces a critical decision. Is joining HOWL the only way to protect her loved ones and find the answers she desperately seeks, or will she find another path to confront the darkness that threatens them all?
