You can't escape what you're destined to become.
Seventeen-year-old Leonardo's life shatters in an instant. A safari in Kenya. The attack of an impossible beast: a massive feline, its coat shimmering white and gold, its amber eyes burning like fire. He survives. But something inside him has awakened.
His body is changing. Nightmares bleed into reality. His blood is no longer entirely human.
And while he struggles to hold on to normality, a darker shadow hunts in silence. A powerful organization known as ARGOS is after ancient relics that should never be unearthed-artifacts buried in sunken temples, beneath the pyramids, in volcanic caves lost to the seas of Indonesia. Each is a key. Each is a threat.
To protect those he loves, Leonardo must confront forces far beyond him.
But the real question is:
how long can he resist the predator rising within?
