A year ago, Nick Cutter and Connor Temple disappeared without a trace. Under the leadership of Danny Quinn, the others have managed to keep together, until one of them reappears. But more has changed than the team realises, and a new threat is drawing ever closer.

After an attack by a Future Predator, Connor hasn't been acting quite the same. Something is happening to him, and the entire team is worried. Only the mysterious Hunters know the truth, and it might be enough to divide the team permanently.

After Connor's intervention saves Cutter from dying in the ARC, the clone found in the wreckage reveals to the professor and the rest of the team that Helen's plans go far beyond simply changing the future: she wants to control it as well, and the threat grows even as the clone brings to light a secret that will shake the entire team.

After their return to the hotel, Jenny and Cutter seek shelter in each other. Missing scene from "The Shadow of the Jaguar."
