β¦ Synopsis
Protected by the dark of night, Jaimie Piper runs. But is anywhere safe when Evil is hunting you?
Sheβs just a twelve year-old girl, bumped around between foster homes and relegated to school classes for challenged kids, those lagging in their test scores or with behavioral issues. But her real problem is that she can sense something the other kids canβtβsomething dark. Something compelling her to run for her life.
All Crockett Grey wants is to mark the anniversary of his daughterβs death alone.
But when his student Jaimie comes to him, terrified, her need for protection collides with his grief, and a tangled web of bizarre events sends them both spiraling toward destruction.
Crockettβs one hope of getting his life back is to uncover the mysterious secrets of Jaimieβs past and her strange gift. It isnβt long before his discoveries lead him to a darker conspiracy, secrets guarded by the highest seat of power in the worldβthe Vatican.
