Synopsis
They're narcissistic. They're violent warlords. And they're making Jessie Kane's life on Earth more of a living hell than it was in Rakdan-her home city in the astral realm. Fed up with her overbearing commanders, Jessie turns her back on the earthly mission given to all Baphomian soldiers. She runs off to West Hollywood, California, and attempts to blend in with the human race. There, she meets Scott Dillon, an unhappy teenager who is as desperate for her friendship as she is for his. But the closer they get, the harder Jessie has to work to hide her true identity from him. At the same time, she must watch her back for Baphomian soldiers, who have labeled her a deserter and a traitor to her people and their cause-to gain sovereignty over both the astral and earthly realms.

Jessie Kane's life has been turned upside down.
She's learned something: she can't trust anyone anymore. She finds herself running from two armies, her best friend, and her own demons. It's a race against the clock and a fight for survival.
Ms. Caldwell takes us to a world so unlike ours, but so similar at the same time. VEILED IN HUMAN FLESH is an interesting take on the battles of good vs. evil. Lines are drawn, boundaries are crossed, and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole ride. Her world building was solid, yet she still managed to use so much of today's America - Hollywood included.
This was definitely a fast-paced and entertaining read.
Wonderful Debut Novelby Anonymous

March 27, 2006: What if the lines between good and evil were blurred beyond recognition? Jessie Kane isn?t sure that those lines even exist, and, if they do, she is definitely on the side of evil. Or is she? Unforeseen circumstances allow Jessie to choose her own path. Although her choices lead her into great danger, Jessie finds herself moving down a path different than anything she?d ever imagined. Fear, hatred, and even love overwhelm the unsuspecting heroine, but she never gives up. Jessie is more human than even she could ever imagine. Jamie Caldwell has taken the classic story of Good Versus Evil and put her own unique spin on it with her novel Veiled In Human Flesh. Caldwell?s descriptions are spectacular, nail-biting episodes that create a true page-turner. Even at the end, I found myself wishing for more.
