"Terrific paranormal entry"
Both genetically enhanced, Iris "Flame" Johnson and Gator
Fontemont met when he rescued her. They are attracted to
one another, but Gator has always been a lone ranger so he
struggles with his need to be with her and Flame trusts no
one. However, he learns she remains in danger from Dr.
Peter Whitney, whom Gator thought dead (see SHADOW GAME);
he willingly risks his life to keep her safe. Realizing he is enhanced like her, Flame fears Gator plans
to return her to the evil Whitney. She detests the fact
that she cannot get him out of her mind as she feels an
irresistible attraction to him that she assumes is just
one more inbreeding mechanism devised by Whitney. She
distrusts her growing love for Gator as much as she
expects him to betray her. Together they might defeat
their common enemy, but separately they will probably die
or worse be re-imprisoned by Whitney that is if he is the
cat chasing them. The latest Ghostwalker Game thriller is a terrific
paranormal entry because of the personalities of two
loners, both ready to explode (especially the heroine) and
neither easily trusting others particularly those who
Whitney experimented on. The story line is action-packed
never slowing down, but also has the haunting of Katrina
as pre-hurricane New Orleans serves as the backdrop.
