What is his connection to the ooze derivative that is shaking up Casey’s world? And can Casey come back from the brink of another soul-crushing and body-breaking defeat? He’ll have to—otherwise Ludovic is going to set his sights on other targets in Mutant Town…

Casey effortlessly has everything Ludovic wants, and he hates him for it. Not only will Ludovic not let Casey get in the way of the Lodge’s plans, but his disdain will fuel a brutal fight that even Casey Jones might not be able to walk away from…
