This is a physic vampire book. When Anna Stanfield's sister Sandra, ends up in the hospital in a coma, life as she knows it is changed forever. The doctors have no idea how or why Anna's sister is in a coma but there she is, in the hospital unable to communicate with anyone. Then out of the blue a man claiming to be a police officer turns up saying that Sandra's coma is not a mistake. This man introduces himself as Ian McGregory and says that Sandra's coma is tied to the deaths of other women in the area recently. What Anna doesn't know is that Ian McGregory is not human and neither is the murderer. They are a race called Cintarian. They are actually humanoid aliens from another world that fled to earth. They have been on earth as long if not longer then man himself has. As a matter of fact there are some of the ancient ones that joined with humans and produced offspring. The offspring tend to have psychic skills to a point. The more removed from the original the less the skills. Now of course Anna knows none of this but she does know one thing. She is being assaulted mentally. At first she refuses to acknowledge the fact that this could be true and chalks it up to imagination. Once as a child Anna used the skills of her mind and someone died. Though it wasn't her fault she blames herself. Anna is very resistant to the fact that she herself has psychic skills and that it may be the only way to catch the killer. This killer is not killing by conventional methods, but psychically. He drains the persons mind thus leaving them an empty shell to die. Only with Sandra he didn't kill her. Now due to Anna's strong skills he is coming after her. It is Ian's job to see that not only is this killer stopped but Anna isn't killed in the process. What Ian doesn't count on is that he falls in love with Anna. Falling in love with humans is something that has been forbidden for many centuries. So now not only are they battling a killer they must battle their feelings and possibly the rulers of the Cintarians if they choose to be together. For those who love vampires or psychic killers you will not be disappointed. |
