Alert! The SheWolf Queen Walks Free!

Twenty years ago, Vesper Hale—a woman of purebred White Wolf lineage—donned a mask and, in a single night, brought the thirteen gangs of Greyport to their knees. She outlawed human trafficking, underground gambling, and the trade of illicit drugs. Her true face remained a mystery; she was known only as "the Queen." After stepping away from the criminal underworld, Vesper concealed her werewolf nature and rose from a humble street vendor to the founder of the Hale Medical Group. She nurtured the careers of her husband, Richard Cole; her son, Evan Cole; and her assistant, Vanessa Shaw. When Evan’s involvement in the smuggling of lethal, counterfeit prescription drugs was exposed, the trio coerced Vesper into taking the fall. She refused and threatened to go to the police, but they drugged her, planted false evidence, and ensured she was sentenced to ten years in prison. Richard bribed assassins within Blackridge Prison to silence her. However, upon recognizing her golden wolf-like eyes and her signature combat style, the assassins pledged their loyalty to her instead. Eight years later, Vesper was released early. She crossed paths with Riley Quinn—who was, in fact, an undercover federal agent—and launched a public act of vengeance at a gala hosted by Richard and Vanessa.
