About this item

Now officially working for the Secret Intelligence Service, Kim Tavistock is back to solve another mystery - this time a serial killer with deep Nazi ties - in the sequel to At the Table of Wolves.Summer, 1936. In England, an assassin is loose. Someone is killing young people who possess Talents. As terror overtakes Britain, Kim Tavistock, now officially employed by England's Secret Intelligence Service, is sent on her first mission: to the remote Sulcliffe Castle in Wales, to use her cover as a journalist to infiltrate a spiritualist cult that may have ties to the murders. Meanwhile, Kim's father, trained spy Julian Tavistock runs his own parallel investigation - and discovers the terrifying Nazi plot behind the serial killings. Cut off from civilization, Sulcliffe Castle is perched on a forbidding headland above a circle of standing stones only visible at low tide. There, Kim shadows a ruthless baroness and her enigmatic son, plying her skills of deception and hearing the truths people most wish to hide. But as her cover disguise unravels, Kim learns that the serial killer is closing in on a person she has grown to love. Now, Kim must race against the clock not just to prevent the final ritual killing - but to turn the tide of the looming war.



About the Author

Kay Kenyon

I've always wanted to write fiction. One of my first creative efforts in school was a series of newsletters written by someone in Macbeth's castle whose job it was to report on the doings of the king. The articles were dark and bloody and really great fun. I've been writing ever since. The work can be dark and bloody, for sure. (At least the fiction.) After 15 published novels, I recently finished a trilogy, The Dark Talents novels, beginning with AT THE TABLE OF WOLVES. The series features a woman who deals with dark Talents, Nazi conspiracies, and espionage in 1936 England. The series has been optioned for film. I was inspired to write this series by the stories of the many women spies, radio operators and resistance fighters in the world wars. Other fantasy novels include QUEEN OF THE DEEP and A THOUSAND PERFECT THINGS. My science fiction novels include THE SEEDS OF TIME, MAXIMUM ICE and a story collection, DYSTOPIA: SEVEN DARK AND HOPEFUL TALES. I'm a founding member of Write on the River (Wenatchee, WA) , and teach online there and for the Rambo Academy of Wayward Writers as well as at PNWA, Write on the Sound (Edmonds WA) and other conferences. I love the writing life. It's full of ups and downs, for sure, but there is always the story Right Now. It's the best life I can imagine, and I'm grateful to have it.
