What happens when you accidentally bring one of the world's most powerful blood-mages back from the dead?

Orson Reid and his friends are about to find out.

But first they'll need to deal with the Paragon Society's ever-growing web of lies, an ancient shape-shifter blood sport, and a very unexpected display of magic ability - but not necessarily in that order.

Whoever said being the good guys was easy, was dead wrong.

And to complicate things even further, it seems that somebody is getting really close to fusing cutting-edge technology with magic.

All hell is about to break loose. Can Orson and the gang survive the coming storm?
