Zorie is lost, again.

Friends can become enemies and enemies can become friends.

What is a man who declares himself your knight in cracked and bloody armor, when he seems to be leading you to your doom?

Mavros, once known as Mister Black, has vanished.

Zorie and Grimm are in the hands of unscrupulous men.

She will emerge either dead, enslaved, or with revenge in her heart and a lethal hairpin in her hand to kill those who have hurt the innocent.

Hairpin or bullet, dead is dead.

Excerpt from Wicked Weapon

Prologue

Zorie

We strolled around the corner into the darkened, car-parking area next to the club – Mavros at my side in his upmarket party-going attire. The man wouldn’t look out of place at Buckingham Palace. Grimm was coming up the rear. From the jingle, he was digging for the car keys in his pocket.

Men, strangers, swarmed us. Six or seven, I didn’t have the leisure time to count.

My heel caught on a hole in the pavement and someone whipped me face-first toward the wall, barely slowing my forward motion in time so I barely kissed the bricks. Hands trapped my wrists. “Fuck! Let me go!” I squirmed and kicked back as some metal nub touched my neck. The pointy end of my accursed stiletto heel connected and the metal slipped away. A scuffle and a few yells behind me said Mavros was resisting. After a fleshy thump, someone gurgled. A soft grunting exhale lanced fear into me. I heard the slide of a body crumpling.

Who was that?

Again, the cold metal was jammed into my nape. A buzz cracked through me, setting me afire. Muscles crunching tight, I shook then collapsed with my mouth open and drooling, the brickwork scraping my chin as stranger’s hands carried me earthward.

Through the roar in my head, I recognized zipties being applied to my wrists and ankles. A needle jabbed into my upper arm and pushed some drug into me.

Taser. They’d tasered me too.

“Fuck. Basterrs,” I slurred before tape flattened across my mouth and I could only blink wildly at the enlarging and shrinking specks of dark concrete near my nose.

Lights moved as I was carried somewhere. Blearily, I saw colored metal shapes. Cars. A car door opened. I was laid on a seat and my legs tucked up. More voices could be heard quietly cursing and arguing. I thought one was Grimm.

Someone had me again. Mister Black...no, he was Mavros now? My head had turned into squishy play dough. Mavros was hurt or he’d not let them do this Surely he wouldn’t?

This wasn’t the plan. Who were these men?

That voice had sounded like Grimm’s.

Had he betrayed me?

Again...

The idea scattered, trailing confetti in my mind.

Engines started and we rolled forward, jolting and driving into the unknown while I sank deeper and deeper into some nothing, thought-blurred place where only the drool under my face mattered and I rocked upon the seat.

Wicked Hunt, Book 3, in the Dark Hearts trilogy, will also be out early 2016
