Order of the Black Knights Gabriel Ingram is running from his past. It's common knowledge at the college where he teaches that he's a former CIA technical analyst, but no one knows the things he really did—or about the rage and bloodlust that are his constant companions. He's holding on to his normal life with both hands, but he knows someday he'll lose his grip. Lucas Craig is a social worker studying to become a family therapist. For reasons Lucas can't understand, the normally reclusive Professor Ingram takes an interest in him, and Lucas secretly hopes their friendship might become more. Then Eric, Lucas's roommate, disappears. Lucas is frantic. The police are no help. With nowhere else to turn, Lucas begs Gabriel for his expertise. What starts as a simple errand to help a friend becomes a journey into a violent world of gangs and human trafficking—one that will bring Gabriel face-to-face with the forces intent on stealing his soul. But Lucas might be the one who can save him—if Gabriel can get them out alive.
