jacquie (United Kingdom) (2010/03/08): This is the second novel in the Arcane Society series. Raine Tallentyre always tried to heed her late aunt Vella's advice - and keep her paranormal abilities a secret. But when she journeys to Shelbyville, Washington, to clear out her aunt's house, Raine's highly developed sensitivity leads her to a horrifying discovery: a young woman held captive in the basement storage locker. And the kidnapper is on the loose. Without warning, a new man enters Raine's life - investigator Zack Jones. While Raine hears voices, Zack sees visions, and suddenly Raine experiences an intense, thrilling intimacy with him that she never dared to expect. There's one complication, however: Zack is working for the secret Arcane Society. The organization - dedicated to the study of paranormal phenomena - lost Raine's trust long ago, when it shattered her family with an act of betrayal. Now, as a killer makes her his new target, and a cabal of psychic criminals known as Nightshade operates in the shadows surrounding them, Raine and Zack must rely not just on their powerful abilities but on each other as well.
