Refusing to let her life be ruled by the dark passions inherited from her druid sire, Mariah has taken her place in the ranks of the enforcers as one of their most talented of the World Walkers. Accompanied by the morph-cat, Ghost, she travels the chain of worlds helping them keep the evil ones at bay.But Mariah has been betrayed. Her one non-witch friend has employed his AI and the information he has gained from her about some of the most exotic worlds to create a computer game called 'Beyond the Void'. When something goes terribly wrong with the game and people begin disappearing from his lab, Shawn contacts Mariah for help.The missing tech is soon discovered. Lost on one of the more brutal worlds that Mariah has inadvertently introduced Shawn to, she has suffered a horrible, violent death. With the very real death of the tech and physical injury to Shawn, it is obvious that what is happening in the game is happening in the real world as well. Shawn believes this phenomenon is being caused by the ghostly entity he encountered during a previous trip into the game. Somehow, the entity has embedded itself within the game program.The ghost of the evil druid haunting Shawn's game program quickly gains control of both Shawn and the AI and begins a campaign of terror along the Chain - and with each death of an innocent he gains more power. Now Mariah and her companions must find a way to stop him - even if it means the death of everyone she knows and loves.
