Product Description
by Eileen R. Hickman (Author)
A daring rescue requires an unimaginable bargain with the enemy in this high-tech Fantasy Suspense.
There's a boundary between shadow and light.
Dark Spinners on one side. Resistance fighters on the other.
That boundary can't be crossed.
Or so Ranita believes. As a resistance fighter, she recruits humans who are tired of the Dark Spinners' oppressive rule. When three recruits are captured, it's her job to rescue them before they're interrogated.
But the prisoners are in Interrogation Five in the impregnable First Ministry Building. To get to them, she needs entry codes, codes her informants cannot get. Without them, her mission is doomed to fail.
Then a Dark Spinner offers an impossible bargain. Impossible because Dark Spinners, alien invaders from the distant world of Luxera, target everything they do toward keeping humans subjugated. The Dark Spinner's offer to provide the codes for just a small favor must be a trap, a scheme to uncover the hidden headquarters of the resistance community.
But that community will also be at risk if the prisoners break under the Inquisitor's hand.
Now Ranita must chose. Take the codes and risk the trap, or give up on the prisoners and risk something much worse.
--Exciting and clean Science-Fantasy Suspense
