With two of the murderous creatures called geds dead, ex-military Jasmyne Jaxx figures it’s an easy evacuation of survivors at this point. The island and its horrors? A militant sweeper team can take care of that. Daxel, the dominant ged, has different plans. In minutes, he infects Jaxx and infiltrates the ship meant to carry the remaining humans to safety. But as Jaxx works to notify the ship, she realizes that the island holds an even greater threat. Not only are infected people displaying a wide range of behaviors, there are things more sinister hunting. Things that even the head of the CGC didn't authorize, and they are loose.
This is the second book in a series, the first being Feral. In book 1 a woman, Cossondra, is sent to an island to investigate where a company has made genetically modified dogs originally intended to be service dogs. I won’t give too much more away, but obviously things go down on the island. Book 2 picks up immediately where book 1 ended. I just really enjoy this series, and this book was a great addition. It was a really quick read, but Vesper is great at fitting a lot into these books. I really liked all the monsters that were added to the Feral universe in this one. This one was mostly from the POV of Jaxx which I liked because she was one of my favorite characters from book 1. There was a book 3 sneak peak at the end and I’m really excited to see where the story goes!
