At the place where
science fiction meets thriller meets crime meets horror -- you
will find --
Where no thriller has gone before.
A macabre murder case
and a planet on the edge of disaster . . .
Inspector
Eddon Brac, from Hegemony Central Police, and Vail
ev Vessintor, his parapsych assistant, arrive on Independent
Planet P-19 to investigate a series of horrifically violent
killings.
They discover a society
sliding into chaos -- terrifying nightmares, increasing darkness,
storms of psychic energy . . .
As the
murders multiply, the ultimate cause begins to appear as something
far more sinister than just a single serial killer.
Eddon has the detective
skills to deal with the practical evidence, Vail has the
psychic talents to understand the seemingly supernatural.
But tensions are driving them apart. Together they may be able
to solve the horror on Independent Planet P-19 -- if first they
can solve their own feelings for each other.
