After nearly 400 years of power without fear, Brein has found himself human again.

In this thrilling sequel to Among the Cattle, Brein must replace his vampiric strength and speed with wit, skill, and determination if he wants to survive the long fall from hunter to hunted.

But even though his otherworldly power is gone, that doesn’t mean the threat is any less dangerous. Now, Brein finds himself facing off against the vampires who were once his family—but he won’t be able to do it alone. Training day and night with Vince and Grace, vampire and human, Brein must hone his skills to take on the most fearsome foe he’s ever had to face: his klutch, his pseudo-father. Struggling with the loss of power and finding himself just like those he once hunted, Brein will face danger, loss, and challenges the likes of which he’s never faced before.

And at any moment, his terrible klutch, he who turned Brein into a vampire all those centuries ago, could be lurking around any corner. There is no way out. Whether he wants it or not, Brein must face his klutch in a ferocious battle to the death if he ever wants to be free. Will Brein and his allies survive the onslaught, or will they be cut down in the fray?

Only their determination and training stand between them and the grave in Among the Butchers.
