Randal Forbes calls his phenomenal, telepathic powers 'the gift'.
Randal had been anticipating the arrival of his special child who would bear the hallmark of his spiritual legacy. It was a rancid, bitter pill to swallow when Roxanne was born out of the result of a one-night stand with his artist, Maxine Hale. She is married to Saul Curtis and has passed the baby off as his, but she is aware of her daughter's true paternity and is very disturbed by her penetrative gaze and strange behaviour. Randal's wife, Alison, and their children, are still completely blind to his dark side. Clive Hargreaves, his lover and protector, remains eternally at his side.
In this fourth book of the series, Randal encounters further danger ahead, but the main aim is to develop and nurture 'the gift' that is blossoming within his chosen child, Roxanne. Randal Forbes has a dark side so powerful that only someone with a similar 'gift' would be able to challenge him and when Carlton Flint appears in his deadly arena, Randal may well have met his match!
