New York Times bestselling author Jacquelyn Frank
returns with the sizzling second book in her sensual new
series set in the World of the Nightwalkers—where
alluring entities known as Bodywalkers face the ultimate
threat.
After being brought back from
death, police officer Jackson Waverly receives the shock of
his life: he has become host to a Bodywalker, a spirit that
is reborn in flesh and blood, and part of a proud, ancient
race that uses its extraordinary gifts to battle dark, evil
forces. Jackson's spirit is a powerful one—none other
than the Egyptian pharaoh Menes, who longs to reunite with
his eternal love, the Egyptian queen Hatshepsut.
While Menes is obsessed with finding the perfect
vessel for his queen, Jackson cannot stop thinking about Dr.
Marissa Anderson, the gorgeous precinct shrink who keeps
pushing him to confront his grief over the loss of his K-9
partner. But what Marissa really arouses most in Jackson is
intense desire, which is exactly what Menes is looking for.
To fight a great enemy, pharaoh and queen must join; but to
host Hatshepsut, Marissa will first have to die. Fate has
given Jackson a profound choice: save Marissa from Menes's
plan or keep an entire species from the brink of
extinction.
