"Fast-paced, Realistic Supernatural Romance"
An elderly vampire killed Maeve's twin sister. For the
past few years, the immortal revenant Maeve has lived for
one thing only, to avenge her sibling's death. However,
she has not gotten any closer in achieving her goal even
though she is residing in the remote Scottish home of the
vampire Sinjin for the past year. Maeve's opportunity
finally occurs when the powerful witch Mortianna wants to
destroy Sinjin for killing her beloved daughter. Mortianna
directs her unwanted male child Quinn to do her bidding
starting with killing Maeve to get her out of the way.
Quinn, a surprisingly powerful
male witch, agrees because he wants his mother's love.
When Quinn and Maeve meet for the first time an attraction
between them connect the two of them. However, Quinn
struggles between his desire for motherly love and his deep
love for Maeve while Maeve cannot let go her desire for
vengeance. Their struggling relationship is part of a
worldwide skirmish for supremacy. REDEMPTION, the latest Shadow Dweller novel, is a
fast-paced supernatural romance that will please fans of
the
series with its ability to make the unreal real. The story
line is filled with action as vampires, witches, and other
ilk take center stage. New readers will quickly turn into
believers although they will struggle with unexplained
references from previous books. J.C. Wilder is quite a
good author, but to full appreciate this fine novel, the
audience needs to read the entire series, which is loaded
with great books. Harriet Klausner /December, 2000
