Zormna Clendar was minding her own business while with 'friends' at her favorite eatery known as Sandi's when she happened to see the infamous Jafarr Zeldar pointing her out to presumed rebel cohorts. On instinct she apprehends him--but her lousy luck also draws in none other than the nasty Dural Korad of the People's Military--Zormna and Jafarr's least favorite human being.
In her first postion as a Surface Patrol officer, Zormna is up against Alea Tenngar, the egotistical head of the district who has a chip on his shoulder. He believes that Zormna's presence threatens his position--as she is the most dangerously skilled pilot to endter his district of the Patrol to date.
Zormna's month of removal from the Surface Patrol of Arras has been hard for her as she has been forced to work three jobs from morning to night. The work has been strenuous and humiliating. But she truly had no idea the nature of the challenge that she faced until she was standing in the middle of it.
Zormna is finally off of her military suspension. When Alea Arden comes to pick her up and take her back to the Surface Patrol, he is surpised to see how much she has changed from her experience... in startling ways.
While trying to keep his head down as he dealt with the daily grind of an undercity born teenager, Jafarr Zeldar ends up on a field trip to the Surface Patrol with his classmates. An enticing offer is extended to him--but as a Zeldar, his future is already decided.
When a family moves into the town's 'haunted house' to help get it sold, everyone at Cliffcoast is curious, and that includes Eve McAllister, this generation's vimp. But when it turns out the new resident is a ghost-whisperer, who comes to Eve for help, everyone is terrified. For a ghost to cross over, it must let go of its fixation with this world - and for some crazy reason Eve is the answer.
Zormna is at court once more for insubordination--assumed guilty and forced to prove herself innnocent. Unfortunately her record of pranks is against her. And the judges in the Council have a vendetta. At the least, she could lose her position in the Surface Patrol. At worst, she could end up in prison for a crime she did not commit.
When Rick Deacon went with his father to Paris, he had no idea the depth of connection his father had with the Loup Garou Society--which was in fact a French Pack of werewolves pretending to be an animal rights group. However, Rick soon finds out that his father had committed a grievious sin which he had kept hidden long since before he was born.
Audry Bruchenhaus (one of the biggest skeptics in the world) along with her cousin Vincent Williams, finally finds out that H. Richard Deacon III is a werewolf.
As reward for her exemplary life, Eve McAllister (this generation's vimp) is given a shot at redemption by Heaven itself. But the timing could not be worse. It is on the day Eve McAllister' and Hanz Johaansen's engagement party when she is snatched away to become a death angel -- a grim reaper. Her probation is on condition that she perform her job well, and also end her own vimp curse so that no other vimps (demon) is reborn after her death.
