Ex-cop Luther Malone, lifelong member of the secretive paranormal organization known as the Arcane Society, is waiting to meet Grace Renquist. Hired as an aura-reading consultant in the quest for a murder suspect, she s got zero field experience. She s from tiny Eclipse Bay, Oregon. She s a librarian, for heaven s sake. As for Grace, she s not expecting much, either, from Malone, who walks with a cane and isn t so good with a gun. Nice resume for a bodyguard. But even before they reach their hotel in Maui where they ll be posing as honeymooners Grace and Luther feel the electric charge between them. Problem is, they need to remain vigilant day and night; because it soon becomes clear there s more going on here. Rogue sensitives operatives for the underground group Nightshade are pouring into the luxury resort as if there s a convention. Grace recognizes those dark spikes in their auras. And she understands how dangerous these people can be...especially with those para-hunters at their sides. As Grace knows all too well, if you don t control your powers, your powers will control you."
