One day, we'll all be myths. During a time that man has forgotten, a mighty ship was laid to rest beneath the rolling waves of the Aegean Sea. With her, the secrets and powers of the Gods lay, waiting to be discovered...Orla Nyren is a spy, a mercenary, a stone cold killer. The last thing she will ever do is let her guard down. Forced into time off from the Ogmios Team, she finds herself in unfamiliar territory: vacationing with civilians in the Peloponnese. A late night encounter with a handsome stranger offers her a glimpse into a side of life she has never allowed herself to imagine: normalcy, freedom, love. But old secrets refuse to stay buried and when the ship is exhumed, her vacation takes a drastic turn. With the help of fellow team member, Jude Lethe, Orla embarks on an adventure that will return her to the myths of old in which the unthinkable is made real and the horrors of man's resolve threaten to seal the doom of humanity. It begs the question: how far is one willing to go before they upset the Gods? Will tempting fate simply result in proving that we make our own, or will it anger the Gods beyond any chance of absolution?
