A brooding clan-killer and a man who prefers to see himself more shark than human are not the most friendly of new partners. But hunted and hated, just surviving is a struggle, and the Akatsuki forms a complex refuge for its members. The lines between men, beasts, and gods begin to blur, and Itachi must either accept his complicity in evil, or instigate revolt.
