It should have been a normal job, but when psychic police show up and kidnap her best friend, Olivia, Kara the female vampire must become a vigilante and take justice into her own hands.
Kara's on her own though, as her kind shuns her for being born with psychic powers. The wars might have ended, but there's bad blood between the blood suckers and the mind readers of the world.
To get help and save Olivia, Kara makes a deal with the devil, or the closest equivalent: Vasha, a gangster with ties to vampires and psychics.
As Kara works to free her friend, she discovers a storm brewing between the supernatural factions, and hears rumblings of a new war on the horizon. Will Kara save Olivia before she becomes the spark that starts a new conflict, or is it already too late?
The book is a recent release, so there is not enough sales data to report.
Kara went over to Olivia, picked her up from the chair, and put her arm around her shoulder. Before they could even reach the door it opened and a man in a suit rushed in. He had a badge at his hip, and a gun drawn.
"Freeze!" he yelled, pointing the gun at them.
Kara focused on the gun and flung it out of the detective's hands and through the mirrored glass on the far wall. The gun broke through and shattered the glass.
The detective glanced from where the gun had gone over to Kara. He swiped his hand over, and a force pulled Olivia away from her. Olivia hit the brick wall and fell to the floor with a thud.
"Liv!" Kara shouted.
Kara's neck felt constricted like she was being choked, but there were no hands on her. She groped at air as she tried to remove the invisible constraints. She looked at the detective to see him with his hand out like he was grabbing air.
"I never thought I'd see the day when a psychic was friends with a vampire."
Kara struggled for breath, and used her powers to loosen his grip on her. "You don't know the half of it," she managed to squeak out.
Kara pulled the binding apart, but a real hand replaced the psychic one. The detective, Simmons by his name tag, was strong—too strong, in fact. He was using his powers to augment his strength, just as Kara had learned to do not a moment before. The difference was he was a full psychic who knew how to use his powers, and was probably stronger than her anyway.
But he didn't know that she had the strength of a vampire behind her.
Kara gripped onto his hand with both of hers. She used her psychic abilities and her strength in tandem and ripped his hand off her throat. He came back and tried to grab her with both hands. She grabbed his wrists and the two struggled against each other for supremacy.
