Thale moves to the city of Nybo after her father is killed.
She struggles to fit in and initially holds a grudge against her mother, whom she blames for her father’s death. Things start to get better when she is invited to a party by a high school friend.
But the party doesn’t end well – a beast kills a girl and attacks Thale, leaving her with an injured shoulder. Thale then begins her own transition into a werewolf.
