ÒDamn smart folk,Ó Mark grumbled, ÒThatÕs why I like you, Daryan. Smart, collectedÑno wonder youÕre a doctor!Ó

Everyone has issues. Some are easily defined, easily treated, or easily swept under the rug. Others, like the patients of Doctor Daryan Locke, face issues that lie deeper under the surface than they may appear. Doctor Locke has certainly seen his share of patientsÑeveryone from troubled teenagers to master thieves and wedding plannersÑbut their cases always come to a conclusion. And while Daryan is adept at handling his patients, his own troubles may not be so easy to diagnose.
