I returned to Kraum with hope for a happy future, but my plans were not destined to come true. The father is dead, and the planet's lands are being bought by the owner of the BI corporation, Maximilian Blair. I got a job with him to find out the truth, and fell into my own trap. Max is not a human, but a telepath and an energy vampire. My hatred and fear became an obsession for him. He makes the worst nightmares come true. And I'm not the only one who wants him dead.
