As a curator at the American Museum of Art in New York City, Denise Sheridan protects the world's most precious artifacts. But her love of history has failed to prepare her for a demon unleashed by fanatics-and intent on her death. No one will believe her-except one man who may be as dangerous as the demon itself... From a luxurious penthouse high above the city, behind dark glasses that conceal his eyes, Ilaron Highborn wields a dangerous, powerful magic. Suave and handsome, he is a renegade who has fled the terrifying dimension he was born to rule. But something has followed Ilaron to his uneasy sanctuary-something deadly, vengeful, and unstoppable. Now, the Son of Darkness must come to the aid of his adopted world, for only in saving Denise Sheridan can he hope to save himself... A Selection of the Science Fiction Book Club "Sherman excels in creating modern myths that draw their imagery from mutlicultural folk tales. Her latest fantasy adventure combines the seductive glamour of faerie legend with tales of Sumerian demons in a fast-moving crossworld fantasy that belongs in most libraries." - LIBRARY JOURNAL ROC BOOKS May 1998 ISBN: 0-451-45666-1 $5.99 US $7.99 CAN
