Bryan Mitchell still has a lot of problems. He's still obsessive-compulsive. He still lives in a parallel world where a biological weapon called the Germ transformed civilization. He's still a Ghostlord, a person marked as Contaminated by the Germ whose fears come to life as horrifying monsters. He's forced by the authoritarian Task Force to hunt down others like him. His home city of Boston has been wracked with civil unrest ever since Bryan succeeded in his first Task Force mission and turned a rogue Ghostlord called the Herald into a martyr. Some want him dead, all wish to control his power, and Bryan doesn't even know which side he's on.Oh, and now he has friends, which sounds like a good thing, but for Bryan they introduce a thousand new worries.When a band of mercenaries attacks Bryan and his girlfriend Jennifer Warfield and drops hints about the murder of someone close to their friend Ruth, Bryan's team is drawn into a web of double-dealing and manipulation encompassing a successor to the Herald, a telepathic enemy with a terrifying plan, their own scheming employers, and deadly secrets within their ranks. There's also a Christmas party. Bryan had better stock up on hand sanitizer.In the world of a Ghostlord, thoughts can kill, enemies return from the dead, and safety is an illusion. The more Bryan tries to set things right, the further he travels down the path of using his power in ways that could make him the most dangerous threat of all...
