Payne of the Past

In February of 2236, rookie detective Amber Payne was ambushed by organ jackers who took her eyes and left her for dead. Cybernetics allowed her to see again, but she had nightmares for years... nightmares in which she relived that horror... saw the faces of the men bent over her as they applied gruesome devices that ripped her eyes from her skull without benefit of anesthesia.

For fourteen years Amber has seen those men in her sleep. One man with piercing blue eyes, the other with a jagged scar running from his left temple to a ragged split in his nostril.

And now, all this time later, she stumbles onto a case where the victim is a young woman who has a similar experience. When the woman describes her attackers, Amber knows she has to take the case. For one of her assailants has a long scar on the left side of his face, from his temple down to his nose.

Payne of the Past is the fourth book in the Amber Payne series.
