Beskrivelse
When people in the centuries-old city of Fenwood start turning into barbaric cannibals, Lace and Lash are drawn into investigating these revolting transformations. Did it all begin in colonial days, when the man-eating Qilpennuoc tribe fathered offspring on female colonists? Is this modern outbreak of cannibalism a case of primitive reversion to the ancestral type? Or is the true explanation far more sinister? Hints of that truth are found when things are glimpsed roaming the streets at night- slinking monstrous creatures, the vanguard of an unthinkable invasion from a world more distant than the farthest stars and yet closer than your own skin. Lash and Lace must discover where the invaders came from-and how to stop more from arriving. If they fail, more than a single city is at stake, for the demonic invaders want far more. For them, the world itself is not enough. The answer awaits Lace and Lash in the echoing vaults of the long-abandoned mansion lost in the menacing woods-along with the ultimate horror ... NIGHT WARRIORS #1: DOUBLE JEOPARDY is the first in the adventures of occult investigators Lace Chabray and Victoria Lash. Lace is the scholar and intellectual of the team, gifted with eidetic memory and a deep intuition regarding the monstrous perils they face. While Lash is nobody's fool, she prefers action to discussing options. A crack shot and an expert in every sort of whip, quirt and flail, she wields these weapons with lethal precision. Using all their skill and verve, the Night Warriors challenge the horrors that threaten us. Yet courage and ability are not always enough when faced with the ghastly spawn that slither and creep over the rim of the world...
