Hubris, book 3, is the next step in the dance that has been set in motion by Lieutenant Commander Harold Hawkings,VI, a spooky commander of SEAL Team 6, whose annoying obsession with Jimmy-Sue (whom he insists on calling Helen) takes an ominous turn when he reveals his truest purpose. Heir to an ancient dynasty with legends and secrets all its own, Rawly insists that Helen is part of a sacred union and is a saint-in-training, with a higher purpose than she has realized; a purpose that is being hidden from her behind a veil of subterfuge by demons and demigods who must keep her in the dark. And, he insists that, whether she likes it or not, it is Rawly's sworn duty to slay her beasts and clear her path by riding herd over those who would keep her from achieving her truest purpose, even if it meant protecting her from herself. Haunted by memories just beyond reach and the garbled voices in her head she desperately seeks to understand, Helen's distrust of Rawly is the least of her worries, because, if he is right, the validity of her divine mission is challenged by a threat even more terrifying than the path she has chosen. But demons are clever and can cloak their skin in many guises, and Helen believes she is being forced to make a deal with the devil to save the child she loves.
