January Reign
Ricki Delano was twenty-four when a jury called him a murderer. What actually happened that night, in his blacked-out wolf shift, was something he didn't even understand himself.
Now he's inmate 0-7-7-4-1 at Valhalla Federal Containment Facility... Supernatural Division, and the intake screen just returned a result nobody expected: LATENT, CLASS UNCONFIRMED.
In a prison sorted strictly by species, being unclassified makes you a target, a curiosity, and a problem someone upstairs wants quietly solved. Ricki has weeks to figure out what he is before the system decides for him. Along the way he's pulled into vampire crime boss Leon Church's information economy one compromise at a time, builds a found family that runs on the same currency as the cage around them, and starts noticing the symptoms he's spent his whole life explaining away sharpen into something he can no longer ignore.
Someone has been watching him since day one. Someone else doesn't want him confirmed at all. And in the Deep End, where even hardened inmates go quiet, something worse than prison is waiting.
