| Captain Kamerone Cree has been, since birth, trained and manipulated into a Reaper. As a Reaper, he is one of the most feared beings in the universe; by being Cree, he takes it to an all-new level. He cannot believe it when he is standing in front of a tribunal court and is being accused of fighting for the resistance rather than the world he has sworn to protect. Cree knows he being set up by the resistance leader to take a fall. He just does not know who SHE is or why he was pinpointed. All he knows is that when he finds her he will do what he does best, assassinate. His punishment for his "traitorous" activities is severe and painful, but he finds one salvation during the mind torture he has suffered; her name is Bridget.
Dr. Bridget Dunne is an earth-woman stolen from her life to help with the repopulation of Rysalia. She was declared too important to be a breeder but that doesn't stop the Rysalian government from enslaving her and selling her to the highest bidder. Her revenge against the Rysalian government is the main reason she has become an integral part of The Resistance and its world-shattering plans. What does The Resistance plan with Cree? Why have they marked him as the "pawn" in their fight against the government? Ms. Boyett-Compo weaves a very complex and multi-tiered world. The dynamics of this world are outstanding and extremely captivating. Cree is the most "respected" killer among an entire race of killers, and yet he is successfully portrayed with emotions and valid reasons for his "Reaper" status and life. This story is rich and superbly written, and would be a great addition to anyone's library!
