Micah leads his team into the forbidden Deadlands on what should be a routine mission. When Atlantean fire erupts from nowhere, his warriors die and he alone survives. The son of legendary Tegan refuses to let their deaths go unanswered. He will hunt down whoever destroyed his team. Phaedra wakes from what she thinks is a nightmare. She has been pulled from Rome to a desolate forest that explodes in supernatural flames. The fierce Breed male she saw in her dream appears to be dead. When she encounters Micah again, very much alive, his fury turns toward her and her Atlantean heritage. He believes her people murdered his team. War between Breeds and Atlanteans threatens to erupt. Another enemy grows stronger in the shadows. Micah and Phaedra must discover what really happened in the Deadlands. Their investigation forces them into an uneasy partnership. Neither can ignore the attraction building between them, even as ancient hatreds push their peoples toward conflict.
