Sometimes you have to go back in order to go forward - Gray is going back to handle the man who saw him as an angel, and unleashed the demon in him. I am a Handler; I deal with serial killers, legally, ruthlessly, and in the presence of my Witness, because justice must be seen to be done. Handling is an intimate procedure. I only perform for an audience of one; for my Witness, with his hot eyes and his innocent heart, and the pure white soul that I dirtied up so beautifully. Now someone else is watching, the man who refined the monster in me. I can't allow that to continue, particularly as he threatens the Witness who has caused the frozen lump in my chest that I laughingly refer to as heart to sporadically beat. This isn't about retribution; this is cleaning up the past so I have a chance at a future. Cleansed is the second book in the Handled trilogy, it is a dark gay romance dealing with adult themes and contains graphic scenes that may upset some readers.
