After more than a decade as a "guide" who helped people in trouble disappear, Jane Whitfield has promised her new husband, Dr. Carey McKinnon, that she will never work again. But when Carey's mentor, a famous plastic surgeon, shows up wounded and wanted for murder, Carey asks her to perform her magic one last time. And in trying to save her client, Jane learns that the deadly Face Changers are using her name, reputation, and techniques to destroy human lives rather than preserve them.
