Her DNA is a weapon, and some will stop at nothing to control it.

Tamisan thought her troubles were over after the defeat of Dr Starrick, the scientist who performed illegal experiments on her, transferring her consciousness into the body of a native of the planet Althar 3. But when Tamisan is set upon by someone she thought she could trust, she realizes that Starrick wasn’t the only one who had an interest in her new abilities.

When the attack leaves her an amnesiac and stranded in the jungle once again, Tamisan is found by the Waikari natives – only they think she’s Sifayah, the young woman whose body she now possesses. They want to help her remember, only the memories they hope to restore are of a life that Tamisan never lived.

With her attacker still at large, Tamisan must learn who she is all over again, and fast. She needs her abilities to defend herself from those who would use her, but without her memories, how will she tell who is friend and who is foe?

ENIGMA is an exciting second (and final) book in the Tamisan Series that will transport sci-fi and paranormal fans to a fascinating world on the outskirts of the Known Universe, filled with suspense, danger, and romance.
