Hybrid—a combination of two or more species, breeds, or varieties to form a new and distinct life form.
Humans are constantly trying to improve on what is. Over the years they mercilessly experimented with combining human and animal DNA, trying to create a being they could control and train to fight their enemies. After relentless trial and error, always ending in death to the host mother, as well as the offspring, an outside influence—alien DNA—was secretly introduced and successfully paired the incompatible DNA forms thus creating the hybrids.
The hybrids of Shadow Tribe, the largest of Earth's hybrid communities, enjoy peace and prosperity. They have flourished in their community, as well as in the human world, undetected for generations, until now. Now the very reason they exist is trying to wipe them out—extinguish them. Their enemies are the humans—their creators—who also call Earth home.
An unrest—a disturbance—is growing and making its way around the world as these humans form mercenary groups and go hunting—hunting for the hybrids their ancestors created. Panterë, the young and future leader of the Shadow Tribe, and her mentor and fierce warrior protector, Shade, find themselves in the battle of their lives in an unfamiliar and hostile territory. If this fight is lost, so, too, is the future of the hybrids.
