Publisher's Synopsis
A contemporary of the White's triplets, human Jess Moore grows up in a time of decline, the result of poor economic, fiscal, and environmental choices, topped off by a worldwide pandemic. The decline leaves intrusive government in the name of security as the price of maintaining a threadbare prosperity. Despite a lost love and a failed marriage, Jess counts herself lucky to have the strength and support of a loving family. As a troubled teenager, she manages to turn her life around. Street-wise Jess obtains a position with the Homeland Security Administration and quickly climbs the career ladder of success. On an undercover background investigation for Patti Redman, her supervisor and mentor, Jess discovers evidence of a black ops group at the highest levels of the department. Tom Redman, Jess' lost love, returns and lands in the middle of a growing web of conspiracy and danger. The adventure unwinds at a furious pace. In the end, a mother's love, a beautiful lycan and a scrap of paper hold the key to their fate.
