About the Book
Return to the powerful, turbulent
Psy/Changeling world created by the “amazingly talented” Nalini Singh,
as a human detective finds himself working the most unlikely of cases — in the dark heart of a Councilor’s domain…
Max Shannon is a
good cop, one of the best in New York Enforcement. Born with a natural
shield that protects him against Psy mental invasions, he knows he has
little chance of advancement within the Psy-dominated power structure.
The last case he expects to be assigned is that of a murderer targeting a Psy Councilor’s closest advisors. And the last woman he expects to
compel him in the most sensual of ways is a Psy on the verge of a
catastrophic mental fracture…
Sophia Russo is a Justice-Psy,
cursed with the ability to retrieve memories from men and women so
twisted even veteran cops keep their distance. Appointed as Max’s
liaison with the Psy, she finds herself fascinated by this human, her
frozen heart threatening to thaw with forbidden emotion. But, her mind
filled with other people’s nightmares, other people’s evil, she’s
standing on the border between sanity and a silken darkness that urges
her to take justice into her own hands, to become judge, jury… and
executioner…
