Elena Baxter can work miracles with her hands. She can coax
bones to knit, flesh to heal. She can mend the mind. She
has been doing such work for almost all of her twenty-eight
years. That is why she will be taken.
The media called it a rampage of terror, the recent
murders. But fighting crime is why Artur Loginov joined
Dirk & Steele. The international detective agency
specializes in the impossible, and their creed is simple:
Help those in need, no matter how difficult, and no matter
what, keep the secret safe. For the agency helps its
employees, too; people like Artur -- the gifted, the
tormented. Dirk & Steele gave the Russian emigre purpose,
protection, community...and refuge from his past, for who
can trust a man who can start a fire with his mind, or
shape-shift, or read others' thoughts as easily as drawing
breath? For his similar talent, Artur will be taken.
Into the darkness Elena and Artur will be drawn, into the
clutches of evil. Cornered, isolated, caged, they will
fight for their very souls. But salvation awaits. it exists
in a form least expected: a dream of a face, a brush of a
mind, the hint of a kiss, and finally, at long last, a
SHADOW TOUCH.
