  Rescue Mission by Robert Silverberg - Snaring both Earthmen in a mind-web was easy for the mutant telepath. But once you've caught your prey—how do you get rid of them? 
  Rick Mason's ship was still high over Mordarga, coming in for a landing, when the cry for help sounded in his audio phones. 
  Rick frowned, reached to the control panel to turn up the amplification—then realized that the voice had not come over the audio after all. It had spoken in his mind. 
  Help! Rick, they've caught me! 
  There was urgency in the mental cry. Instantly, Mason sized up the situation. 
  It was his partner, Klon Darra, the Venusian—the other half of this mentally-attuned Solar System intelligence team. Klon Darra was in trouble! 
  He focussed his mental energies and replied: I read you, Klon Darra. What's the problem? 
  The response was blurred and indistinct, as if the Venusian were laboring under great mental strain. I ... landed on schedule. Fell into hands of ... ruler. In prison. Going to be tortured. I.... 
  Mason struggled to keep his attention on his descending spaceship while picking up the Venusian's fading mental voice. Go ahead, Klon Darra. I hear you. 
  They're going to torture me. Help me, Mason. Help! 
  Where are you? Mason asked. 
  Dungeons of the main palace, Mordarga City. Hurry, Rick. There's not much time!

  They say breaking up is hard to do. They’re wrong. Living with the consequences is so much harder, especially when sorrow is a powerful draw to evil … 
    
  Lizzie Grace is trying to get on with her life now that she and Aiden have gone their separate ways, but it’s a difficult thing to do when just about everything reminds her of the damn man. 
    
  The situation is made worse when a body is found, and her job as Deputy Reservation Witch means she has no choice but to interact with him. At first, the death seems to be nothing more than an accidental drowning in a remote location, but it’s soon evident a supernatural entity is involved. 
    
  As they race to uncover what is going on, it becomes clear that this evil is not only targeting werewolves, but one particular pack—the O’Connor’s. 
    
  And the reason might well be the song of sorrow. A song that Lizzie’s grief might have given birth to…
