They fly through the streets and subvert the minds and emotions of humans, driving them to violence and despair. A woman named Gem is Guardian of the Astral Gate in L.A. It is her responsibility to send those Red Souls back where they came from, but she needs help. Most of all, she needs a Listener who can tell her where the Red Souls are and where they will attack next.Willet Du Place is such a Listener. Her hearing is so acute that Doctors call her auditory system an anatomical miracle, but she gets severe migraines from loud sounds and spends most of her time in bed under a haze of strong meds. Gem coaxes Willet out of her house and recruits her into the Circle of Augustus, an ancient fighting force that rises to protect a city in danger of being overcome by evil. Everyone says Gem is crazy, but Willet is willing to risk pain and danger if it means there is a purpose for her abnormal life.>Praise from verified readers for a new and unique voice in fantasy fiction.
