Synopsis:
Fairfield Detective Alexis (Alex) Martinez is in pursuit of
a killer so brutal, he holds an entire city in the grip of terror. His victims
are picked at random; their torture and mutilation, unspeakable. As the body
count rises, Alex's investigation puts her among the hunted-not by the serial,
but by a much greater threat: a secret society with members imbedded inside
world governments, law enforcement and every walk of life. Their prime
objective is to avert discovery, and when her investigation comes too close to
revealing their existence, Alex becomes a target. The only one that can save
her is the trained assassin they've sent to kill her; someone who has already infiltrated
her heart and mind, and who may be the monster she's been chasing all along.
David Jason Sawyer is a predator with the face of an angel, his mind a weapon as equally formidable as his body, prince of a powerful hidden society believed to represent the next step in man's evolution: Family. Their physiology has evolved to consume bio-energy directly. They're stronger. They age at an incredibly decelerated rate. With their extraordinary ability to heal, they're close to invincible. And they feed on humans to survive.
Since childhood, Sawyer has been trained to manipulate and entrap on reflex, to put emotion second and Family first; yet one moment of weakness, sparing the very detective that hunts him, the woman he has grown to love, makes him a dangerous threat his people cannot tolerate.
Now, light must join forces with darkness as Alex and David struggle to stay one step ahead of an invisible army out to silence them both.

Firstly I would like to thank the author for giving me this opportunity of reading and reviewing this book.
Well, after a long time I read a good mystery/thriller book and the paranormal punch made this story just my type of read. I loved the pacing and the author didn't go on explaining a single scene over pages rather the mystery part covers most of the story which will definitely keep you hooked in.
The characters are great and I loved Alex very much. The fact that she is a cop and messes with dangerous criminals made her my favourite but I would accept that I loved David. He is mysterious and hot, well a deadly combination.
The mystery part is awesome and the suspense made me sit on the edge of my seat. Over all a great read and I would recommend it to you guys because I know it will win over your hearts as well. Enjoy reading!!!
