The latest heart-pounding novel from A.J. Scudiere features a demon and an angel—one climbing the corporate ladder, the other a step away from total ruin—both knowing that salvation lies with one woman’s desperate choice
Katharine Geryon is living the life her family name has dictated, and why not? After all, it has given her a good job in the family company and a fine life with all the things she should want. But all that changes as increasingly disturbing events begin to occur: soot stains on the carpet, glimpses of strange black animals, and cryptic messages written on her bathroom mirror. Baffled and afraid, Katharine begins to doubt her own sanity.
At the same time, two charismatic men enter her life: Allistair, her new assistant at work, and Zachary, a well-heeled neighbor who just moved into her building. Katha- rine soon finds each of them inextricably entangled in her affairs. As her life becomes stranger and her dreams more terrifying, she realizes neither man is what he seems and that she’s caught in something far beyond her own comprehension. For the first time, she must reach beyond her own boundaries. There Katharine forges her first true friendship, with Margot, a librarian who helps her discover what these men really are, why she’s drawn to them, and what they want with her.
The answer places Katharine in the middle of a fierce battle that forces her to decide between the two men fighting for her soul.
In the end, only one can be saved, but all three will be judged.
The shift is coming. Soon. Dr. David Carter knows this. However, he's a geologist, so "soon" means anywhere from tomorrow to a thousand years from now.
PEOPLE ARE DYING. NOW.
Drs. Jordan Abellard and Jillian Brookwood are standing at the edge of the SuperAIDS epidemic. Or are they? They won't be able to figure that out if they can't get some authorization signed-and soon. But they're peons, and no one is paying attention. That means no one will notice a little forgery either, right?
WHOLE SPECIES DIED AT THE LAST POLAR SHIFT, SIXTY-FIVE MILLION YEARS AGO.
Right now, Dr. Becky Sorenson has some seriously mutated frogs in her lab. In L.A., bees are making abnormal columns on the side of the freeways. In Georgia, birds are migrating out of season.
It all makes a sick kind of sense when the doctors consider that the last magnetic shift coincided with the dinosaur die-out. And the only similarity in the problems today is that each is occurring in a 'hotspot'-a pocket of reversed polarity that tells them all...
THE SHIFT IS ALREADY HERE.
