Citadel: Paths in Darkness - Citadel, #2

THE REAL STRANGERS ARE WITHIN. BOOK TWO OF THREE"Kevin Tumlinson has this ability to make us believe in his characters. In addition to the understated precision of his style, the thing that distinguishes Kevin's fiction is his ability with plot. He is a natural storyteller." -DR. JAMES ULMER, AUTHOR OF "THE SECRET LIFE" A MIND DIVIDEDA HOLLOW VICTORYA NEW SPECIESAgainst all odds, on an unchartered world, the souls of First Colony have been restored to life, and a centuries old wrong has been righted-sort of. On the planet's surface, a young woman struggles to reclaim her mind from the strange aftereffects of the cancellation wave.
