GREAT FOLLOW-UP TO "WALKING AFTER MIDNIGHT"

Here is Shadow's story. He was introduced to us in "Walking After Midnight" - He was fourteen at that time and a child of the streets.Shadow is a product of the streets - he finds it impossible to speak of his past - his character had been well set as he appeared and disappeared from Sabrina Duncan's life.He is now a mercenary, a killer, a shadow of a man. A skilled fighter. His silence and opaque gray eyes revealed only that he had secrets - deadly secrets.Only Riley McDouglas never experienced the brutality of this silent mercenary. His aloofness and glimpses of hidden pain intrigued Riley, the flame haired beauty.Her beauty caught the attention of Ko Tan, the mercillous drug lord she wanted to interview. [Boy, was she stupid] Ko Tan followed no man's rules. He took what he wanted and eventually destroyed it. And he wanted Riley.He informed Shadow to let his thousands of men of the camp know that Riley was his. He would kill anyone who disobeyed. Even Shadow.Could she escape the camp even though it might mean Shadow's death? Did she dare try?Riley thought she could get away with an interview of Ko Tan - she soon learned her mistake as he made his intentions clear. Even if he had to drug her. She was running out of time and could not depend on Shadow to rescue her.Excellently written story of danger and intrigue [plus hormones].Emotionally captivating. Fast paced. Definitely had to put down.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED --M - brief reference to Sabrina and Thomas Lain pulling the two stories together.
