An ancient war has never ended. In 1942, physics professor Simon Douglas is pulled from his quiet Maine life into a secret Nazi laboratory where wonder-weapons defy physics and a golden pocket watch hums with impossible power. What begins as a desperate mission with the last surviving Protector, Thomas Grant, becomes a blood-soaked race to stop the Deceivers-alien rebels who have shaped human history for millennia and now stand on the brink of total dominion. Sixty years later, Simon's grandson Jack discovers the family legacy is far darker than he imagined. The five legendary watches, forged on a dying world, are waking. One is already in enemy hands. The others lie hidden across continents, each holding keys to godlike technology-and humanity's extinction. With a rogue detective and an unlikely crew, Jack must finish the war his grandfather started... before the Deceivers rewrite history forever. Some bloodlines don't end.They ignite.
