Duty called Dr. Rikki Kinn to the Congo. One of the
world's top virus hunters working for the CDC, she is on a
mission to investigate a deadly new plague. But there are
those determined to stop her—at any price. Shape-shifter
Amiri was born in this land of untamed splendor. Here he
woke with the sun and raced as the cheetah . . . until he
was kidnapped and subjected to terrible experiments by the
evil Consortium. Now his colleagues and brothers in Dirk &
Steele want him to return to Africa to face his
nightmares. For a good woman has been targeted for death—a
beautiful healer who holds the fate of millions in her
hands, whose destiny is intertwined with his—and whose
need leaves Amiri vulnerable, threatening his heart, his
passion . . . and his soul.
