<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>After an encounter with a dying man leaves him with astonishing powers, Willet Dura is drawn into an epic conflict that threatens his entire land.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Patrick Carr Launches a New Suspense-filled Fantasy Epic<br/></b><br/>When one man is brutally murdered and the priest he works for mortally wounded on the streets of Bunard, Willet Dura is called to investigate. Yet the clues to the crime lead to contradictions and questions without answers. As Willet begins to question the dying priest, the man pulls Willet close and screams in a foreign tongue. Then he dies without another word.<br/><br/>Willet returns to the city, no closer to answers than before, but his senses are skewed. People he touches appear to have a subtle shift, a twist seen at the edge of his vision, and it's as though he can see their deepest thoughts. In a world divided between haves and have-nots, gifted and common, Willet soon learns he's been passed the rarest gift of all: a gift that's not supposed to exist. <br/><br/>Now Willet must pursue the murderer still on the loose in Bunard even as he's pulled into a much more dangerous and epic conflict that threatens not only his city, but his entire world--a conflict that will force him to come to terms with his own tortured past if he wants to survive.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><b>The Darkwater Claims All Who Enter It.<br/>All But One. <br/><br/></b>When one man is brutally murdered and the priest he works for mortally wounded, Willet Dura, reeve to the king of Bunard, is called to investigate.
