No one would describe Gina Lawrence as a sweet and blushing girl-next-door. But even Gina, so worldly and street-wise, had to admit God's Island went way beyond anything she could have imagined. It existed at a time long before the dawning of Club Med and the free-loving hippie anything goes movement--a time when global tensions had reached breaking point. Amid terrifying nuclear brinkmanship, Sam Godsteen's Island promised Club Med and more-much more. And like all forbidden fruit, it was bound to end. Gina thought she'd found heaven on earth. Even when things started to fall apart she tried to ignore the signs. She'd drawn about herself a cocoon of indulgence-a personal paradise on a tropical island- where only a select few would share a wild ride of emotion-filled excitement. A deceptive place, devoid of law and social structure, that would quickly and violently transform, leaving only a vast ocean in which to run and hide. Sheer survival quickly replaces her blinkered fool's paradise, culminating in a hellish ordeal of death and deprivation, leaving her little choice. Gina must kill or be killed. God's Island to Devil's Island in the blink of an eye.

The palace is a graveyard of dreams and hope. It slowly lures you in with its mesmerizing beauty, giving silky promises of power and wealth. But as soon as you take a step into the mirage, the doors snap shut. Then you realize... The high palace walls are nothing more than a cage of bones. The peaceful lotus pool is simply a resting place for thousands of lost souls. And laughter and smiles are a weapon to kill you before you can even mutter a single word. When lucky, a remain or two may find its way out - a fragmented jade or two bloody teeth, a remembrance that this indeed was history. From her birth, she was chained by the invisible strings of fate. What was the palace but another prison? Her bargain was her freedom, and his bet was the future of the empire. He favored the land over her, so she chose herself over him. But when she finally had the chance to escape, she found that she couldn't. For her hands were spotted with crimson blood.

Death and destruction are nothing short of common for Laine Fraser, and if there's one thing she knows, it's that demon hunting runs in her blood. She was raised as a Guardian and forged into the perfect weapon with a sole purpose in mind -- exterminate the creatures of the underworld. Burdened with the expectations of her family and the legacy of her ancestors, Laine became tired of the constant loss and never-ending battle against the spawn of Hell. When the opportunity to leave it all behind presented itself, she put her guns in the ground and reinvented herself as a new woman, but the past refused to release its claws from her. With a dangerous penchant for stirring up trouble and two attempts on her life under her belt, Laine finds herself thrust back into the flames with a target on her back and demons hot on her tail. They thirst for her blood and will stop at nothing to get what they want. Assisted by people from the past and few unlikely allies, Laine will once again have to fight for her life in a world she swore she had left behind.
