Release #24 - The butcher

A letter marked Thorne Estate changes everything for Lily Thorne — revealing her as the sole heir to one of Blackgrave’s oldest and wealthiest bloodlines. But before the Shadow Birds can even process what that means for their future, another nightmare rises in the streets below. Butcher Krail, leader of the Slaughter Boys, has turned Blackgrave’s butcher shops into slaughterhouses of human horror. While Ash Barrow struggles to balance his life as mayor and vigilante, Mara takes the hunt into her own hands. Alone. Through rain-soaked alleys, blood-stained butcher shops, and brutal close-quarters combat, Mara descends into one of the darkest nights Blackgrave has ever seen. What begins as a gang takedown becomes a savage war against a monster who sees people as meat. And by the time the hunt is over, Mara may come home victorious… …but not unchanged. A brutal, noir-soaked street-level chapter of VULTURE focused on Mara’s most violent solo mission yet.
