She was ready to leave the police force. Until the impossible refused to stay buried.
Detective Lila Hart had already decided. One last case, then she was done with the New Orleans Police Department.Then Talon Creed stepped out of a tomb and showed her a world no badge could protect her from.
Now the dreams won't stop.
A stranger whispering: "My grandson will be taken on June 12th." A broken clock frozen at 11:14. And every night, it feels closer.
Today is June 11th.
Hart doesn't believe in prophecy. She believes in evidence. But when details from her nightmare surface in active case files, she realizes someone isn't predicting the future—they're engineering it.
And the message is meant for her.
Creed has the answers. About the dreams. About the Teacher—the killer Hart believed was dead. About the world beneath New Orleans that operates by rules older than any law Hart swore to uphold.
He isn't offering help. He's offering a choice.
Because when 11:14 arrives, a child will vanish—unless Hart is willing to step fully into the shadows where things like Creed hunt, and things like the Teacher wait.
CREED'S DOMINION is the second Talon Creed thriller — where destiny is weaponized, predators refuse to stay buried, and some doors can't be closed once opened.
For fans of Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child's Pendergast series, Ben Aaronovitch's Rivers of London, and dark supernatural crime with relentless stakes.
