Until that ill-fated trip to the South American jungle changes her into a supernatural being. Now she's sprouting claws and stronger and faster than any human being in existence. The reclusive tribe calls her their Protector - but from what? And why now? Why her?

EXCERPT:

A month later, it was my first day out doing something normal—shopping at the mall.  Up to now, I’d avoided crowds, doing my grocery shopping when the stores were almost deserted.  Walking to my car in the parking garage, my hands were full of bags, and a man walked behind me.  At first, I didn’t think of hearing someone behind me, until his footsteps sped up to get close to me.  He demanded my purse.  I was willing to cooperate since I didn’t want to provoke him.  Better my stuff than my life, right?  That’s what the police tell you to do.  So, I set down the bags, and the guy lunged for my purse.  

I can’t tell you how I did what happened next.  

Next thing I knew, I had the guy in a choke hold with claws pressed to his neck.  Claws!  The guy started freaking out, then, begging me not to hurt him.  I tightened the hold until he blacked out, then called 911 on my cell phone.  The police arrived, took my statement and the mugger, and I went home.

Shaking.

My fingernails turned into claws.  That was NOT normal.  Both hands?  I stared at my left.  Yep, both hands.  Oh God.

And then the fight moves.  What was that?  This wasn’t The Matrix.  I hadn’t been plugged into a machine for a kung fu download.  Had I?  What really happened in that village?
