By: JC Andrijeski

Narrated by: Dara Rosenberg

"He will break anything you try to keep pure, brother."

When her employer, psychic detective Quentin Black, calls from a Bangkok jail, asking for her help, forensic psychologist Miri Fox is forced to fly across the world to get him.

She finds Black working undercover inside a gang of criminals, trying to discover who's murdering street children and burning their bodies inside Buddhist temples.

Black isn't the only one interested in the crimes, however, and soon his investigations get the attention of a crime syndicate out of Russia that doesn't appreciate his meddling.

When Miri shows up to help, events quickly spiral out of control, and Miri soon finds herself the hunted.

trigger warning

The story pulls you in, but there's a sequence that is not for anyone with sexual assault and aggression issues. It fits the narrative and explains some of what is going on with the Seers.

There are hints about the aliens and their thinking. Finally, there is also a hint of Black's background but only a hint.

Sickening rape scene.

The rape scene was graphic and disturbing . Totally ruined the story for me. Also, the story line about paedophiles is disturbing in it's own way. Very disappointed in this book.

Why is it so hard for Audible to put RAPE tags.

I read and listen to books for entertainment. Rape is noy entertaining. This book had descriptive rape to it if your sensative don't listen. Audinle you neer to either put tags up or have the authors put tags on these books my grand children listen to audible on a shared account!

Overly descriptive rape and hostage situation.

violent Alien sex mixed with hostage situation and mystery. Honestly made me uncomfortable and I stopped reading.

Instant DNF - NO TRIGGER WARNINGS!

DNF on Audiobook at 50%. Narrator was amazing, book content not
This series had amazing potential but ruined by no TW Warning on Audible and Barely any on Ebook page. I’ve been warned the entire last half of book is same and even book 3 continues this.

I like dark romance,and can handle a lot.. but not this. It threw me into a full blown PTSD episode.

Absolutely the worst. This is the reason books need to have TW lists. Especially on Audiobooks.
Explicit 🍇 Scene with no warning. And not just physical, they’re psychic so the r*pist breaks her mentally/psychically to create a feedback loop so she experiences all her excruciating pain in addition to his sick sadistic pleasure and enjoyment of it on a mental and emotional level in addition to the physical. Multiple times.

Oh and it goes into discussion multiple times about human trafficking, children trafficking, and pedophilia. And the types of child/teen pedophilia as clinical diagnosis.
