Synopsis: Arielle Blaylock had always been fragile in body but not in spirit. Her over protective father had lost his wife to strange, febrile dreams that seemed to manifest themselves in a ghastly reality that took her from him. He's determined not to lose his daughter to the same bizarre ailment so he hires famous detective Shelley Holmes to help exorcise his daughter's demons. But the strange cats that inhabit her dreams are not demons to Arielle. With every vision they become more her only kindred spirits. In the dream world, Arielle is powerful, athletic, perfect in mind and body so why should she want to awaken to her feeble reality? She knew one creature was good and one was bad, but both were alluring. And why did the legacy from her mother, an amulet of the Egyptian cat goddess, comfort her so even as it seemed to make her dreams more erotic? As Shelley helps Arielle solve the mystery of her birth, doing all she can to save her charge's life in the process, Shelley will also meet a man who will be the first to truly test her mettle. He will know her, and come to love her, for what she is, but Shelley's indomitable independence will rebel against him and her own feelings as she battles both her own emotions and the dark forces that strive to carry Arielle away. But it might be too late...Have both their fates been writ large in the Egyptian Book of the Dead in Arielle's study?
