"Excellent cross between a techno-thriller and a deeply moving romance."

Captain Ryland Miller and his men volunteered for the "Ghostwalker" experiment in order to better serve their country as psychic warriors. But something went wrong, and now none of the Ghostwalkers are able to turn off their strong psychic powers, which according to the scientists in charge of the experiment, leads to seizure and death in the men affected by it. So they find themselves trapped like rats in a lab, separated and imprisoned.

Dr. Peter Whitney, the man who originated the research that made the program possible, brings in his daughter - secretly a psychic who's learned to control her powers - to consult. The attraction between the beautiful Lily Whitney and the tormented Ryland is immediate, animal and basic. Lily wants only to help the men affected by the experiment, but it swiftly becomes clear that someone else is seeking to harm them.

Filled with Ms. Feehan's usual strong, memorable characters (especially Ryland and his men - you have to love those alpha males!) and intricate storytelling, Shadow Game is a cross between a techno-thriller and a deeply moving romance. I loved this book, and though it's quite different than this author's beloved Carpathian series, I think you'll love it too. Dare we hope that SHADOW GAME is the first book in another superb series?

Summary

The classified experiment is the brainchild of renowned scientist Peter Whitney and his brilliant daughter, Lily. Created to enhance the psychic abilities of an elite squadron, it can transform their natural mental powers into a unique military weapon. But something goes wrong. In the isolated underground labs, the men have been dying-victims of bizarre accidents. Captain Ryland Miller knows he is next.

When Dr. Whitney himself is murdered, Ryland has only one person left to trust: the beautiful Lily. Possessed of an uncanny sixth sense herself, Lily shares Ryland's every new fear, every betrayal, every growing suspicion, and every passionate beat of the heart. Together, they will be drawn deeper into the labyrinth of her father's past...and closer to a secret that someone would kill to keep hidden.
