Trecheon Omnir has finally scrapped his old life as an assassin and settled into his new role as a mage. His time with the Defenders has given him an opportunity to find himself again and reawaken his romantic side. He's found himself falling in love with not one, but two Defenders-Sacha, the head healer, and Matt, his best friend. But romance must be put on the backburner while they continue the desperate search for missing healer Leah Nealia-a search that feels hopeless.
But when Leah suddenly shows up at Trecheon's doorstep with an unknown Athánatos prince in tow, claiming Matt's long-thought-dead father is alive and in danger, his hard-earned peace is shattered. Making matters worse, Bob Ackerson, traitorous leader of Black Ops during the War of Eons and Trecheon's former commanding officer, has sent an elite hit squad called Angel after Jaden and his allies, who have gone into hiding.
With Matt and the other Defenders on their way back to Zyearth, Trecheon must take charge and find Jaden by deciphering cryptic hints to track him-all while evading Ackerson's Angel, who will stop at nothing to end them and Jaden.
