In 1804 America, a slave named Tobias seeks revenge against his master and is willing to pay any price to get it. He seeks a shaman of his native land, who secretly practices the ancient ways on a nearby plantation. A spell is cast and a curse is laid. To insure fulfillment, a quest must be undertaken. Tobias must deliver a mysterious object to the very same plantation from which he came. Tobias must run. He no longer runs for his life, as he has no will to live. He runs for revenge, and revenge alone, as all else has been lost.
Almost 200 years later, and because of Tobias' actions, paramedic Galen Morris finds himself in possession of a strange artifact that proves to be as deadly as it is beautiful. Suddenly, Galen is running for his life. The life he's never truly figured out. The life he desperately wants to mend, and share with Audra, an acquaintance who soon becomes so much more. Now that he has someone to live for, he finds himself in a terrorizing and frantic battle of survival that comes by complete surprise.
Can these people face their fears? Can they do the right thing? Can they emerge victorious and claim their hearts are strong? That justice has been served?
"Few debut novels pack the punch of a seasoned professional, but Dark Justice does just that. Visceral, complex, and riveting, here is a story that spans time and pushes the genre's boundaries. Kept me reading until the early morning hours."
--James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Oracle
