"I don′t suspect anyone, and that′s my worst worry. I should suspect someone, so why don′t I? What I do have is a sense that I′m missing something right under my nose ..."

With the Hug′s hierarchies of power in turmoil, Delmonico delves into the lives and pasts of every Hugger. It is the case of his career, and he is determined to solve it. But how do you find a monster who leaves no clues and is two steps ahead?
