Tethered

Memories of another life grow stronger
Her friends are in danger
Can she trust any of the adults in her life ...

Kyrie Landvik finally understands why her parents isolated her for the first sixteen years of her life: one man wants her dead, and another wants to control her powers. Now living in Olathe, Kansas, with an aunt she never knew existed, Kyrie finds herself exposed and vulnerable while memories of her past begin to reveal painful truths her deceased parents tried to contain by forcing her to forget.

Reluctant to run away from their families and school, Kyrie's friends hope the danger will simply pass, ignoring her pleas for them to allow her to find them a safe place to all hide together. However, Steven Bishop, the man who wants to control Kyrie, has a vast fortune, an army of Bound slaves with powers of their own, and no moral hesitation to use either. Dennis Hurlington, the leader of the religious cult determined to send all demons back to hell, will stop at nothing to see her die. The nagging question Kyrie can't answer is which will get to her first.

Raised on D&D, and reinforced by her parents' practicality, Kyrie's other nature sees a clear path forward: the men hunting her must die. However, her friends are uncomfortable with the idea of outright murder, even after they become the target of gunfire in the normally safe city of Olathe. The fear for their families, each other, and a strong desire not to end up in prison, drive them to look for alternatives, but they have almost no time left to figure out what to do next.

Can Kyrie and her friends find another way to defeat the men pursuing her, or will she lose her humanity by giving in to the deadly predator awakening within her?
