The Hunter: shape-shifter, magical healer, and posse of one who has journeyed light years in search of the other. The Fugitive: criminal and corruptor of his distant civilization. But to survive on Earth, they must find 'host' human bodies - willing or otherwise. A presence within. Young Robert Kinnaird knew something was terribly wrong. His hands shook uncontrollably. Inhuman groans came from his mouth. Then he knew - The Hunter was with him, guiding, protecting, preparing him for the final confrontation. But once the duel of possessed men began, it was not that their alien mentors prevailed - it was the timeless struggle of courage and fear, compassion and hatred for the domain of the human heart:- Review(s): "Imaginative, ingenious" - Kirkus Reviews / "A very good story.
