Summary
Book three of the Indigo Skies series... --- One of the wheels was spinning somewhere in the noise. My voice wheezed, whispering into the line. "Maloney... Eonsen here… It's a compound. Dark road with no lights." I could hear the vampire coming. My gaze bled across to Graeme. Maloney was our only hope now. I checked the gun's ammo with my good hand. "Nothing else around here. Please…" My windpipe felt like it was being crushed. My lungs wouldn't inflate properly. "Send help." --- With little power comes great potential… & an agonizing death. Business has been quiet since her last case, but an abduction in New York drags PI Violet Eonsen off to the states with the promise of a paid job. Accompanied by friend & mute, Simon, they soon realise that there's more than just one victim here. There's been a spate of disappearances all over the city & the police aren't doing anything. Necromancer Violet is convinced that the victims are still alive, but who's kidnapping them & why? When it becomes obvious that all the abductees are mutes or weak supernaturals, Violet's desperate to send Simon home to protect him. Except Simon won't leave. Finally finding a friend from the past, he's unwilling to let go of the only connection to his old life. But is this old friend all that she seems? & will Simon become the next victim on the kidnapper's list? Not if Violet can help it.
