The Man at La Valaise
To Sacha, La Valaise and its owner, Madame Cassel, had always been a haven. This time, she arrived to find three strangers in residence and herself a prisoner.

What had happened to Madame Cassel? What would happen to her?

Although the mysteriously disturbing Nikolai Torlenkov said no harm would come to her, how could she believe him when he wouldn't let her go? And what was even more disturbing--she was no longer sure she wanted to.

Hero: Nikolai "Tor" Torlenkov
Heroine: Sacha Donnelly
