This story is essentially a sequel to the final episode of the series, and tells us the story of the showdown between Max (and the other transgenics) and Ames White, renegade NSA agent and member of a secret conclave dedicated to erradicating the transgenics. As the tensions between the two groups build, Max and her friends must find out if a transgenic is behind a string of gruesome murders, as reported, before they are used as an excuse to slaughter the transgenics.
This was a very fast read, and fans of the show will find the characterizations true to the on-screen depictions. For a television tie-in novel, this book actually tackles some moderately heavy themes of discrimination and ways of comping with it. Even so, this book never gets too weighted down with moral ambiguity, and provides an entertaining return to the post-Pulse Seattle of the series.. And summed up by saying A fun return to post-Pulse Seattle. Currently Skin Game (Dark Angel) has an overall rating of 8 over 10.

Tensions are high between normal humans and transgenics, and many inside the protected City would just as soon let the humans fend for themselves. Yet Max and her inner circle know they must investigate the crimes and stop the bloodshed. Doing nothing would simply give the normals more reasons to hate.But what they discover will shock even the most jaded among them—and expose a sinister agenda that leads to an old, nefarious foe. . . .
