Description

Blastborn is a quiet, old-fashioned city by any measure, so when an invisible force causes normally peaceful folks to kill one another, the police are hard put to stop it. When her cousin is murdered, Arabeth's inquiry reveals an ugly truth about the origin of Blastborn and its progenitors.

Still, it had to stop. Calling in family favours and using her status to persuade gatekeepers isn't something she is comfortable with, but no one else sees what she sees.

Plans for catching an unseen assailant are hard to explain and harder for others to accept. Her best friend since childhood, Samuel Hicks, is a Police Detective who has learned to trust her hunches. Refusing to let her walk into this danger alone, he insists they team up. Trust isn't easy for either of them, despite their history, or perhaps because of it. Together they'll attempt to solve a mystery that's turning the people of her city into cold-blooded killers. What they'll discover is beyond even Arabeth's imagination.
