Canyons of Night (2011) by Jayne Castle (pseudonym Jayne Ann Krentz) is the third and final novel in the "Mirror" trilogy. Typical of Castle/Krentz: a strong heroine, a protective hero, psi-energy, mystery, and light eroticism.
John Wilson was excited about his thirteenth birthday for two reasons: the first was that he would be greeted at home by his grandmother's delicious cake, and the second was that his grandmother would finally reveal the secret about his parents.
The book is a genre of popular science literature with elements of technological vision and futurism, characteristic of the era in which it was created – the time of the Cold War, the space race, and great expectations from science.
