    But as a new actress filming the cult hit TV show Dark Passages in 1960s New York City, using her powers isn't the only temptation she has to resist…not with costars like dark, troubled Michael Halliday and enigmatic Brit Ian Fletcher.And Meg isn't the only one with secrets.When a beautiful, 300-year-old witch bent on destroying Meg forces her into a spectacular battle for supremacy, it will take all of Meg's wit and tenacity to realize that the powers she's always denied herself might not be a curse, but a blessing."I’ve written Dark Passages with an affectionate nod to both the New York Playboy Club, where I worked as a Bunny, and Dark Shadows, the ’60s soap opera in which I played Josette DuPrés, the doomed fiancée of vampire Barnabas Collins. In The Bunny Years and my books about Dark Shadows, I’ve told the story of what really happened all those years ago when I turned in my Bunny ears and joined a small company of actors to create the world of Dark Shadows. Now I’m satisfying my itch to write a novel about that time, that world—combining elements of horror and fantasy to tell a story about a vampire, a witch and unrequited love."—KATHRYN LEIGH SCOTT

The "Her Instruments" box set contains all four novels: Earthrise Reese Eddings has enough to do keeping her rattletrap merchant vessel, the TMS Earthrise, profitable enough to feed herself and her crew. So when a mysterious benefactor from her past shows up demanding she rescue a man from slavers, her first reaction is to run for the hills. Unfortunately, she did promise to repay the loan.
