Modern Atlantis is no utopia. Grace learned this the hard way... by dying. She is a phoenix and the centerpiece of a secret supernatural conflict involving others like her and the mysterious immortal descendants of ancient slaves. As she struggles with her power, faith, and emotions, an enemy as old and dark as the island itself threatens the current inhabitants of ancient Atlantis. And he means to use Grace and the two men who love her to lay waste to the island a second time.
