An emergency reaches Nick Carter in the form of frantic teenagers and a strange tale of a missing friend. Betty and Bill were in the park when attackers made them run, but they forgot their friend Rose. Little creatures seemed to drop wordlessly from the trees, and the details are fuzzy.
Inspecting the grounds, Nick looks for footprints or other clues that might help. A bloodless body is found with a strange mark on her neck. Is this some kind of gang war? According to Bill, the attackers didn’t seem quite human.
Nick shares the clues thus far with his helper, Patsy. Since the attackers only seem interested in women, she volunteers to be bait for a trap. The idea of vampires and something supernatural is batted around, but logic prevails. Tension builds as Nick prepares his trap. Will he have all his bases covered in protecting Patsy, and in snaring the mysterious attackers?
Can anything really prepare Patsy for her nerve-racking ordeal in the dark? Who, or what is behind the tiny clutching hands that come to hunt for her?
