Praise for The Woman in the Wires! The writing style of the book is a masterclass in intricacy and captivation... The climactic showdown almost had me in tears... --Fiverr Reviewer ...final chapters are captivating. I love the blend of horror, sensational action, and humor. There's also genuine poignancy in your evocations of the characters' affections for each other. Mark Spencer, Author and Editor The chewed remains of three people are found in alleys of Los Angeles. Speculation is a wild animal attack, but that's doubtful. A mountain of black sand in downtown L.A. hides a Gate to the Underworld. More likely, something dangerous sneaked through it. Half of the Circle of Augustus is scattered across space and time, unable to help. The Listener will have to summon the heat of Venus to protect the city.
Willet Du Place, Listener of the Circle of Augustus, is the new Guardian of Los Angeles but she doesn't feel prepared for the job. For one thing, it comes with a big complication. The emotions of other people can now attack her and tie her up in color-coded wires at inopportune times. For another, she has no defenses. But there is help. A cat named Smoke adopts her, and his defensive skills are exceptional. The Silver Warrior still stands at her side, ready to hurl silver spears to defend her or kiss her passionately, whatever she needs. And an ancient Guardian from the Enclave shows her how to build solid defenses out of particles in the air. The thing that came through the Gate will inevitably return to the streets. The new Guardian of L.A. will be ready.
