Meet Cyrus Grant, rat shifter. He's currently getting washed through a sewer in a thunderstorm, fighting for his life beneath the streets of Chicago. He's covered in trash and he's about to drown. And he's being hunted by a mad scientist and an evil fae. Just another day in the life of a rat... Aren't shifters supposed to be wolves, or dudes with hairy manchests who effortlessly destroy paranormal creatures? The gods must have missed the memo. All Cyrus wanted to do was find a job so he could stop sleeping on his sister's couch. Now his current occupation is staying alive. If he thought the paranormal underbelly of the city was brutal, the secret world of rats is even worse. If he can't survive, he's a dead rat walking. This is a different kind of shifter urban fantasy story, paying homage to King Rat but told in the 3rd person similar to Moonheart by Charles deLint. You won't be able to stop reading, and you'll never look at a rat the same way again.
