Sequel to Bad Seed

After tracking down a murderer, Dane wants life to get back to normal. But when an Order of Decrypters representative shows in Dane's coffee shop, he knows he's going to have to watch his step.

Reeling from a reprimand for his conduct and annoyed at having nothing better to do than make coffee, Dane is relieved when he learns there's a problem monster on the loose. Hunting down whatever is killing and eating cows sounds like the perfect cure for his moodiness. Add in the company of his unlikely partner professor Sean Sanderson, and Dane might just get over disciplinary action.

The problem is Dane can't figure out what kind of monster is on a killing spree. And Sean doesn't seem to remember him anymore.
