Opis

Love can get you killed. Security contractor Lily Rowan is clawing her way back to normalcy after a training mission gone horrifically wrong left her physically and emotionally broken. She's returned to the city she grew up in, but not to hide from her nightmares, to face them. Living alongside the Ormney-genetically altered refugees who've settled in The Zone-is a daily reminder of the Ormney trainee who nearly took her life. Lily knew it would be tough, but she couldn't have known coming home would drop her straight into a madman's deadly game. Someone is drugging Ormney men and turning them into mindless killers, reenacting the attack Lily barely survived. To stop the killing spree and put her own demons behind her, Lily must overcome her fear and work with Jolaj, a refugee Law Keeper with dangerous secrets and hidden motives of his own. Jolaj long ago dedicated his life to his people, risking everything to find them a new home. But working with Lily could prove to be the most difficult task he's ever faced. Despite the Council's decree making relationships with the outsiders forbidden, he's finding it hard to keep the courageous Lily at a distance. With the fragile peace between their people on the line, Lily and Jolaj must stop the horrific crimes before their growing attraction makes them the killer's next targets. In the near future, the world is forever altered when the existence of the Ormney is made known. But two things remain the same-serial killers still walk among us and murder is still as ugly and terrifying as ever.
