During a blistering heat wave in New York, police begin to discover evidence of a sadistic killer. Detective Shaefer, the brother of Arnold Schwarzenegger's character from the first Predator film, quickly learns it is the extra-terrestrial hunters, drawn by the heat and the prey.

When a Predator spacecraft crashlands in the isolated Northern tundra of Siberia, Detective Shaefer is called upon to aid the US military in capturing the technology. Unfortunately, the Russian forces have their eyes on the craft as well.

The story is told from the viewpoint of the Predators which brought a number of challenges. In particular the author John Shirley had to expand the Predator language.
