about the book

Braxton Steele deals with A vicious murder. A community is frightened.

The Community assigned its lead investigator, Mona, to look into it. What Mona finds scares her even more than a simple murder, if there is such a thing.

The story picks up six months after the tragic abduction of Honey Lee-Marks. The community has settled down. Honey is entering her third trimester, carrying the unborn heir to the Mark’s estate. The scars of the dishonor to the Mark’s estate are receding. Mona and Master Charles resumed their relationship, and she enjoys sharing time together.

Meanwhile, the body of the master of another estate, Braxton Steele, brutally tortured and murdered, turns up. Speculation runs wild with false accusations, suppositions, and fear. It’s been centuries since anyone butchered someone like this. The Chairman of Club Lothario directs an investigation to find and bring the culprit to justice.

Those efforts fail.

The Chairman calls Mona Bendarova in to take up the challenge. After many frustrating searches, she found a clue revealing a plot that endangered her community, way of life, and even her species.

What she finds shakes the community to the core. Is anyone safe from the coming confrontation? Enlisting the aid of her Master, they develop a plan to counter the threat and return the community to peace before they are all cut to pieces.
