Shadow Game by Christine Feehan Jove, September, 2003. Paperback, 323 pages. ISBN: 0515135968 Subgenre: Romantic suspense Ordering information: Amazon.com | Amazon.co.uk 
Bestselling author Christine Feehan takes a break from her popular Carpathian romance series with this new stand alone. Brilliant scientist Peter Whitney is the creator of a classified
government project which is using elite military
personnel as guinea pigs for an experiment in
using ESP as a weapon. Captain Ryland Miller
volunteered for the experiment, but now realizes that was a terrible mistake: one by one his men are dying painful deaths. Determined to escape from the hellish underground lab in which he is imprisoned, Ryland turns for help to Dr. Whitney's beautiful daughter,
Lily, who is also telepathically gifted. Lily and Ryland make an immediate mental connection and plot to release Ryland and his men.
But when Lily's father is murdered, Lily finds out some terrible secrets that he had hidden from her. With determined killers on their
trail, the two must find a way to expose the corruption that has permeated the entire project
and give Ryland and his men their freedom.
Christine Feehan enters new territory with this story of government conspiracies, dark secrets and telepathic powers. This is a fast read, full of action and raw passion. Although Ryland's overpowering, instant attraction to Lily seems a bit much (his dialogue at first makes him sound much too needy), eventually his love is fully reciprocated, both on the physical and mental planes. Other than that one jarring note, the rest of the story falls into place nicely. Reprinted with permission from The Internet Writing Journal®. Copyright © 1997-2011 by Writers Write, Inc.
