Rachel Connery has come to the Foundation of Being to find the truth about her mother's death--what has happened to all her money, and what secrets lie behind the smiling, placid members of what Rachel considers a cult?
Luke Bardell is as bad as a man can be--a liar, swindler, convicted murderer and cult leader. So why is she so attracted to him?
There's evil at the Foundation, but Rachel can't tell where it's coming from--the holier than thou members, or Luke Bardell himself. Luke is involved in something very wrong...but is he the real source of evil? And is she a total fool to believe that he's someone worth loving?
