Mind Games: a Jen Rice novel

Darkness is spreading.

Even greater challenges are waiting for Jen after she escapes the demonic realm. She has little control over her own abilities, abilities that every test she has taken confirms she doesn't have. Agents from the NPIB are hounding at her heels, wanting to know her secrets. Vampires and werewolves are losing control of their hunger, attacking any who comes near. An old enemy, almost forgotten, returns with a grudge to settle with Jen.

At least Cylin is dead, her friends saw to that personally. Even after the death of his apprentice, Thaxter continues to exert his influence over Jen, an influence she is less and less inclined to resist.

The prisoners who had been held by the demons are in recovery, but their treatment isn't much better than what they received at the hands of their tormentors. Determined that her new friends had suffered enough, Jen takes it upon herself to make their situation better. Suffering herself, she refuses to face what she has been through without a fight.

After life growing up in the beautifully rainy Pacific Northwest, Shanon L. Mayer tends to keep indoors, writing story after story, building vivid worlds on paper while her thoughts hold everything but images. She tends to look at everything in her world for inspiration - especially her collections of skulls, dragon statues, swords and knives, and pretty much anything that fits her eclectic, geeky-gothic lifestyle. When her busy life feels like too much, she can be found relaxing with a hot mug of tea and a documentary on anything from theoretical physics to deep ocean wildlife to the most famous heists the world has ever seen.
