After narrowly surviving the Duplicitype, Erica Slaughter must still reckon with the murderous Cutter to save Tribulation. Separated from Dolly and driven by rage, Cutter won't stop until she gets revenge on Erica.

But the horror is far from over as the Duplicitype, the infamous monster wearing Erica's likeness that changed Something is Killing the Children forever, also remains at large and in relentless pursuit! And with Cecilia showing up, will Erica finally find the ally she needs, or is betrayal in the cards?

Most importantly, what chance does Erica stand?

    RIP Gabi Lopez. Daughter, niece, child, Hurricane Woman.

    It's not so much how bad things got, it's more about the loses everyone took. There was never going to be a happy ending to this arc. There was no victory or triumph. No celebration or enjoyment of the spoils of war. Charlotte Cutter did accomplish what she set out to do which can only be described as mayhem. The resolution of this conflict was pretty intense. Tynion kept adding more elements to the fold like Cecilia extending an olive branch and admitting she was wrong. The duplicitype looking like Erica and learning how to TALK!!! The poison dipped arrows always felt like a bad a idea. But to go so sideways, to such extent? I was not ready for that. Where do you go from here, Erica Slaughter?
