A Cat at Bay
by Alma Boykin
When old enemies and allies collide, a Cat needs her Dragons. Rada Ni Drako senses something amiss, or does she? Rada's worlds seem to be spinning out of control after an encounter with a stasis-field scrambles her Gifts. A commanding officer who can't bring herself to trust "the Alien," strange doings in the depths of the Drachenburg, and a flare-up Rada's centuries-old feud with Clan Blee on Drakon IV leave Rada wondering if age has finally caught up with her. Or does something far more dangerous than just the passing years gnaw on Rada? For old enemies lurk in the starry depths, watching, waiting, as patient as Time itself. . . Rada's foes are about to rediscover a deadly truth: nothing is as dangerous as a cat at bay.**
