Synopsis
Sascha Duncan belongs to the Psy, a people who suppress all emotion through a conditioning programme called Silence. She hides the fact that her feelings are slipping through, a secret that would bring severe punishment. Lucas Hunter is a changeling who craves the touch and sensation the Psy reject. When changeling women are murdered and the trail points to a Psy killer, Lucas needs access to the Psy world that only Sascha can give. Working together, they find themselves drawn to each other. Their attraction strains the loyalties each owes to their own people, at a time when tension between the two races is already close to open conflict.
