My manager insists I need protection, and before I know it, there's a big, hunky gargoyle bodyguard at my door. Graeme is my polar opposite in every way. He's a massive grump who seems to think smiling is against his job description. The man is all business, no pleasure. And my free-spirited nature seems to be getting under his stone-cold skin. I can't figure out if I want to punch him or kiss him!

Wie aus dem Nichts tauchen unbekannte Dämonen in London auf - so bestialisch und grausam, dass selbst Staysy, Jack, Hassan und Sachiko das Blut in den Adern gefriert. Die neuen Dämonen scheinen urbanen Legenden und harmlosen Internet-Scherzen entsprungen zu sein. Aber wie konnten sie sich materialisieren und in der realen Welt Menschen töten? Während die Dämonenseuche weltweit um sich greift, jagen die Trainees der Sinclair Academy dem Ursprung hinterher.

In London scheint es ein bestialischer Mörder auf ahnungslose Touristen abgesehen zu haben. Achtzehn Tote werden innerhalb weniger Wochen in verlassenen U-Bahn-Schächten gefunden. Den Opfern wurden die Kehlen zerrissen, die Körper sind mit Bisswunden übersät. Zur gleichen Zeit müssen die Trainees der Sinclair-Academy einer Prophezeiung nachgehen, der zufolge sich unterhalb Londons eine Armee von Nicht-Leben versammelt und an die Oberfläche drängt.

Inszenierte Lesung mit Geräuschen und Musik. Seltsame Dinge geschehen in Little Middleton: Die Bewohner besorgen sich magische Waffen und es kommt zu einem sprunghaften Anstieg übernatürlicher Aktivitäten. Grund genug für die Trainees der Sinclair Academy dem Dorf einen Besuch abzustatten. Dort angekommen entdecken sie die übel zugerichtete Leiche eines berühmten Fußballstars. In seinem Blut finden sich Hinweise, dass jemand Experimente an Menschen durchführt.

In London häufen sich die Meldungen über verbrannte Menschen. Männer und Frauen, Reiche und Arme, Unschuldige und Verbrecher - alle Opfer sind durch spontane Selbstentzündung in Flammen aufgegangen. Schon bald finden die Trainees den Grund für diese mysteriösen Todesfälle heraus: Der wahre König von London ist zurückgekehrt und hat seine vier apokalyptischen Reiter auf Menschenjagd geschickt. Um den König aufzuhalten, müssen die Trainees die sagenumwobene Fetzenkrone finden.
