One spring morning two Earth years ago in Silver Lake, Wisconsin, Josiah walked away from the human life he created and the only soul he ever loved. He returned to his home on Sol to continue in his people's traditions as their High Elder. His new life couldn't fill the void left from the loss of Raina or chase away the nightmarish memories that plagued him. Immersed in his previous regiments, Josiah is assigned a new Espirt de corps, who is a professor at a college in California.
Blind to the dangers that were developing in Silver Lake, Josiah fights to keep his sanity by taking refuge in the companionship of a mysterious woman. She entangles Josiah into a new realm of terror where his protection may not be enough to save them both.
On her own mission of hope for her brother's sake, Great Elder Mataya sets out to right the wrongs of another lifetime. She races against time-shifts in the outer realms of Heaven to change the devastating effects her actions have created. When Mataya realizes she may be too late, the Guardian world as she knows it will never be the same again.
