Dreams of Ivory and Gold

Gregor Novara hunts evil, despite being loathed by those who see him as an abomination for the incubus blood flowing through his veins. In Dreams of Ivory and Gold, Gregor Novara hunts another of his kind, seeking to stop an incubus before it can put a cataclysmic prophecy into motion-a prophecy the Catholic Church has hidden for centuries. Novara's hopes gradually turn to despair as he descends into darkness and risks giving in to the very evil he is hunting. Meanwhile, New York City homicide detective Morgan Kelly is plagued with a growing list of murdered women. The mutilated victims are interlinked by the manners of their deaths and an ancient bloodline. Fresh off a psych evaluation (and a suspension), Detective Kelly desperately seeks the killer, while also dealing with the ongoing nightmares disrupting her life. Father Roger Greene has been ordered by the Vatican to watch over the emotionally unstable emissary called Gregor Novara, while also counseling his childhood friend, the aforementioned Detective Kelly. Startled to discover the Church's dark secrets and the serial killer plaguing NYC are one and the same, Father Greene must put aside his fears and help Novara destroy the incubus before it captures his friend Det. Kelly and initiates the Biblical apocalypse.
