Rogue

There are consequences when an empty vessel is possessed by Harry Burns, a Hellbound soul who goes on the attack against what is left of his family. As Mark and Maya meet new Shepherds, and learn to advance their abilities, tragedy strikes: Mark is left almost powerless from a mysterious attack at the site of a massacre at a nursing home. The attack seems to be an unfortunate accident until Mark vanishes, leaving Maya and her mentors convinced the Rogue has his hand in everything that has happened so far.

Assistance, however, is not what they receive. To their horror they learn that the Elders, who have left the safety to the Shepherd homeland of Genesis, reveal that rather than save Mark and Maya they wish to sacrifice the young Shepherd pair to the Rogue to keep the peace, something they've done many times in the past.

Now Mark and Maya are left to battle two terrible threats: The Rogue and the Elders. Secrets are revealed, a ruthless killer of children is brought to justice, and Mark, Maya, and their mentors are all pushed to their limits just to stay alive.
