Iron Shadows
Endeavour Award nominee 1999.
Iron Shadows... an exciting, fast-paced thriller about a charismatic cult with a dark underside, a riveting adventure filled with passion and danger.
Cat Juvell has a black belt and a knack for solving difficult cases. She and her partner have been hired by a wealthy industrialist to retrieve his sister - and the family's millions - from the control of a mysterious cult known as the Golden Sun.
The cult's young leaders, twins Joy and Tomo, are said to have miraculous powers to heal and transform - and the cult's inner circle are rumored to perform erotic rituals in a quest to reach a higher consciousness.
But there are suggestions of darker practices, and a whispered phrase - Iron Shadows - that hints at a long-slumbering conspiracy of terror.
