Thereβs no such thing as magic in the broken city of Lkossa, especially for sixteen-year-old Koffi, who indentured to the notorious Night Zoo, knows the fearsome creatures in her care and paying off her family's debts to secure their eventual freedom can be her only focus. But the night those she loves are gravely threatened by the Zooβs cruel master, Koffi unleashes a power she doesnβt fully understand, upending her life completely.
As the second son of a decorated hero, Ekon is all but destined to become a Son of the Sixβan elite warriorβand uphold a family legacy. But on the night of his final rite of passage, Ekon encounters not only the Shetaniβa vicious monster that has plagued the city for nearly a century and stalks his nightmaresβbut Koffi who seems to have the power to ward off the beast. Koffiβs power ultimately saves Ekon, but his choice to let her flee dooms his hopes of becoming a warrior.
Desperate to redeem himself, Ekon vows to hunt the Shetani and end its reign of terror, but he canβt do it alone. Koffi and Ekon form a tentative alliance and together enter the Greater Jungle, a world steeped in wild, frightening magic and untold dangers. The hunt begins. But it quickly becomes unclear whether they are the hunters or the hunted.
