Synopsis

Night Warrior is a demon bent on killing humans. It needs a human host. Rhonda Steppe has no idea that deep inside, she is a sociopath. Then they are coupled and Rhonda discovers that her life was dull and gray. Now the dark ecstasy of human blood and death brilliantly color her experiences. She wants more and Night Warrior is obliging. The demon leads Rhonda on a killing spree moving ever west towards an ancient site that she senses is the demon's home.

Shasha Harrings and her specialized team, attempt to track down the source of the strange murders happening. Torn apart, but leaving no blood evidence, the victims are not of a type but seem random. The only clue to go on is the murders are moving along a path headed west out of Chicago.
