Synopsis

Amber McKenzie considers herself a normal, if somewhat bland-looking college student.  Then one morning, she feels the touch of something cold and evil, something she can’t see or explain.

Amber barely has time to reflect on it before she attacked in the bathroom by her best friend.  She comes home and finds her family slaughtered, forcing her to rely on the dubious protection of a D&D “mage” and a woman who may, or may not be a real vampire.

Is Amber losing her mind, or is she really being stalked by a daemon?  And if it is real, will the help of her unusual new friends be enough to save Amber from the cold clutches of her invisible enemy?

Part of the Mystical World Wars series, Touched marks one of several “entry points” into the fictional world.  This story introduces readers to the MWW series, and to characters Amber McKenzie, Marcus/Jenny Wrigley and Vicky.  This was originally posted as a serial novella in 2007, and has undergone 1 minor revision since publication.
