Something is stalking Dallas - First it attacked cattle, leaving bloody, mutilated corpses. Now it's going after people: men, women, even children - dozens at a time. The police has few clues - some scraps of leather, a few feathers, scattered flower petals. Lots of bodies. And an aura of unstoppable evil. Detective Mark Valdez feels that evil. He's dealt with the occult before, and he knows he's in over his head. So he calls a specialist. Diana Tregarde. Romance novelist. Investigator of unnatural events. Practicing witch. If anyone can determine what malevolent power is loose in Dallas, she can. Power calls to power. Will Diana be an avenging angel or a willing sacrifice? (adapted from the back cover of the first edition)
