The strong second book (after Silver Silence) in Singh’s second Psy-Changeling series delves deeper into the sophisticated web of intricately complex relationships found in the elaborately detailed universe where changelings, psychically gifted psy, and humans must live in harmony. Kaia is a changeling and cook who is fiercely loyal to BlackSea, the organization of water-based changelings. Her caregiving instincts are roused by the sole patient in her home base’s clinic: Bowen Knight, the security chief for the Human Alliance. Bowen is recovering from a near-fatal bullet wound and also suffering from the malfunctioning of a prototype psy-blocking chip implanted in his brain, which will kill him if it’s not fixed or removed. His only chance of recovery lies with BlackSea, where he plans to help the changelings find their missing clanmates and puzzle out the Alliance’s involvement in the disappearances. Intrigue and the tangled knots of politics are the author’s hallmarks, once again beautifully illustrated alongside a heartfelt romance between two flawed souls. Agent: Nephele Tempest, Knight Agency.

The second audiobook of the Psy-Changeling Trinity opens as the leader of the Human Alliance, Bowen Knight, wakes from a coma. Immediately, he is drawn to the standoffish yet inherently caring Kaia, whose voice radiates warmth and playfulness throughout the audio. Though Bowen is struggling to regain strength in somewhat unfriendly territory, narrator Angela Dawe conveys his resilience and determination with strong tones. Romantic tension builds steadily as the two lead characters fall in love, at the same time fearing that irreconcilable differences may tear them apart. Listeners will be riveted as a race against time begins when a traitor steals the formula that could save Bowen's life. Paranormal romance fans will enjoy diving into Singh's Psy/Changeling world once again. J.M. � AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
