In an effort to take control over her life again, Mari becomes a top criminal psychologist aided in part by her psychometric abilities. Bloodstained memories of countless victims haunt her days and nights but she doesn't dare tell others the truth; not all monsters are human. Nathan Bliedd is a werewolf on a mission. As the leader of the Clan, it falls to him to protect his people. Mari Stevenson has become the worst threat to his kind in living memory. Her profiles are too specific and her books hint at Clan secrets. The High Council orders her execution but once Nathan meets Mari, he discovers he cannot kill an innocent who might be his true mate. Nathan has to win Mari's trust before she will allow him close enough to infect her with the 'Gift'. Through it all they are under constant threat from stalkers and pack. Mari has to come to terms with Nathan's heritage and her own past. less
